Chucky, fall and spring seasons are a completely different game. Bears are not feeding on grass in the fall.
This could be a helpful thread i plan on doing some S and S in the fall here in Az.
Sreekers, I don't think bears are structure or land profile orientated like whitetails are. In the spring they will be keying into the grass in areas where they are not often disturbed. They do not travel far until the breeding season hits in late May and early June. Then you will often see boars covering a lot of ground looking for females.
I like to find an open ridge or clearcut that butts up against several ridges of dark timber. Here in NW Montana, dark timber dominates the terrain. When you find an open ridge with grass, it tends to concentrate the bears. I don't know what the terrain is like in WY where you are hunting. If it is all grassy and sparsely timbered it may be as simple as finding the best grass in places like avalanche chutes. One advantage to hunting open country is that bears can be seen from a looong ways away.
If you see a bear in an area one evening, odds are that he'll be there the next evening as well.
