This is some very good advice! Bears graze on grass when they first emerge out of there dens. Find the lushest green grass, its is easy on there stomach, on a warm sunny slope and do alot of glassing. Bears have poor eyesight but a great since of smell, so try to use the wind in your favor.
Good Luck, and Good Hunting!
