All bears. But that's Alaska, not the Rockies.

Those links I posted are not specific to an area.

This guy kills a lot of bears hunting that way and I plan to give it a try with him one of these days.

Probably won't even need to carry any twinkies either.

I'm thinking he didn't me right out of hibernation, but a couple of weeks out of it. Sort of when they're out of their stupor wandering around.

Maybe that's it. I plan to find out.
