Brad from Prey Pursuit joins us to recount our spring bear scouting trip in the Montana mountains where we battled snow conditions and logistical challenges across multiple locations. We share honest reflections on the realities of early season bear hunting while exploring the gear, strategies, and mindset needed for backcountry pursuits.
• Post-holing through snow for 1,600 feet of elevation gain to a glassing spot
• Switching plans multiple times due to unexpectedly high snow levels
• Using mountain bikes (including one youth-sized) to access closed roads
• Setting up a hot tent camp that quickly turned into a smoke chamber
• Discussing bear color preferences and ethical shot selection
• Exploring archery setups and the journey from beginner to experienced bow hunter
• Examining the gear that worked and what needs upgrading
