A buddy and I are trying to plan a DIY bear hunt in Idaho. We'll be coming up from Utah, and from what I can gather, unit 27 would be one of closest units to Utah that would provide a good opportunity to see some bruins. We're looking to do spot and stalk hunting with the rifle, but we aren't opposed to setting up some bait sites.

Anyone ever hunt this area for bears? Or is there a better area that I should be looking at?

Thanks!
