    There are 2 nice ones there. I’m the last place on the left heading north before the state forest. Not up there as much as I would like.

    I like hunting in October xue to the warmer temps, but this is too warm. I think your best bet this week will be to hunt the fallen barometer on Saturday morning and possibly Saturday late afternoon as the cold front pushes in.

    You're in prime area for bears. But, you can't shoot them if they're lying in a shady laurel thicket trying to stay cool.
    True, true and true.I have historically hunted ahead of or at the arrival of a cold front. After several days of summer like heat, the critters are going to be on the move.

    The hunter I had come to hunt bear today only saw deer. He got one two years ago sitting at my range building.

    In recent years I had a lot of bear activity during hunting season. This year they vanished around Sept off of the trail cams and stopped pooping on my roads. Since then only had one big one pass through at night earlier this month twice.

    Anyone hear of any reports of harvest? Usually local news has reporters at bear check stations, but I haven*t heard a peep. Asked some locals at watering hole and zilch from them also.
