Oh boy! 53 miles from here in Elk River - they harvest some really fine Black Bear. Getting one with a ML should not be a problem.
Even here on the Palouse you end up kicking them off the forest roads as you driving and kicking them around during hunting season. They are not as abundant on the Palouse as they use to be but they are still here.... which reminds me of one of my more scary hunting trips.... Early seaon elk hunting in thick timber just above some farm fields... I was moving along on a game trail just the other side of the wheat field following a set of very fresh elk track. I heard the stretch and pop of something hitting the barb wire fence then a bunch of noise in the brush running right at me.... then all of a sudden this big black animal was on top of me... I had no time to do anything.... thank gosh it was a big and I mean big black lab from the farm - he was friendly as heck... but it scared the crap out of me....
Parker Brothers.... 11 miles east in Troy, Idaho - actually one of the brothers lives a few streets over here in Moscow.
Buck Knives is 90 mile north... they do make pretty nice knives...
