Never wanted to hunt bears. When in Alaska I had many chances to shoot blacks. Most I saw there were not large. The grizz on the other hand were numerous and while not extremely large(interior grizzlies) they were not afraid of you and somewhat belligerent. My chosen backup grizzly country gun has dispatched 2 at very close range. The bear season here lasts until you hit the quota numbers. Of course ya can't shoot grizzlies here even though they seem to be more numerous than blacks. I was up last week and saw 3 moose...bull cow and calf. The bulls are spooky..cows are ..curious... is a good word. The elk??? hard to get close too. Saw 2 but a bit far for my ol Winchester 71 348. I was hunting the black timber. They were moving up hill faster than I could crawl up that hill. LOL! Oh hell, what am I saying..they were walking up hill faster than I could if I had just thrown myself off the mountain downward!!
