I left the house about 4 o'clock on Friday to look for some green in a local creek bottom. It is still brown most places here but the area I headed to gets a ton of snow and rain so I was hopeful the green was a little more intense than the other places I have hunted this year. I still hunted going from green spot to green spot because it was too thick to do much glassing. The last place I looked I found this guy. I didn't measure him but he was probably about five feet. After I got him lined up in the scope he smelled me and bolted. I shot him on the run from about 125 yards with my 30-06 and he dropped.

Great looking bear! Way to get us on the board for the year.
 
Hopefully the first of many for Hunt Talkers this spring! Beauty.

We saw one last spring same color, same size up off Lake Kooc.'s shoreline - unfortunately, it was doing Mach 9 in front of the truck and across a logging road surrounded by 15' tall regrowth.
 
Nice job. I'd be thrilled with running into one of that color this year. Congratulations!
