Bears migrate to the coastal beaches and grassy estuaries in the spring while the upper valleys and alpine are still snow laden. When bear sign is spotted in a specific area, several days may be spent in the area to harvest the animal by patiently setting up in a blind or tree stand. These bears are unpredictable, fearless and the ultimate challenge to the seasoned Trophy Hunter.
