Default RE: PA Bears - Who's Going?

We definitely have a lot of territory to cover (SGL #13 is about 30,000 acres) and not many people hunting it. However, there is always a chance. I look at it as a chance to do some last minute scouting and to also try and bag a coyote. I will bring a varmint call with me. I never thought I would ever see a bear, let alone shoot one, but I got one in 1996. I found out later that another guy got one in the same area about 2 or 3 years prior to me getting mine. Two years after I got mine, I saw another one in the same area but didn't get a shot off. I was relieving myself and had the gun leaning against a tree. A couple minutes later I heard a shot. My wife was out for her first hunt and missed the same bear. So, it is possible. Likely - no way. Possible - yes.
