Book Buzz?

Hunting in the land of the Big Bears
Aug 21 2006Hi Cameron,
One question I have for you is what do you do about bivouacking in grizzly country? The area I hunt in Montana is starting to get more and more grizzlies, let alone the wolves. I have been fortunate so far but I know eventually I will run into one. I saw one last year at long distance and also have been seeing a lot more sign than I have in the past. I know all the rules when it comes to keeping a clean camp but I was just curious as to what you do when you look for a place to sleep for the night?

Aug 15 2006The rugged mountains of Nevada will not only test a bowhunter’s mind, body and spirit, it can also do quite a number on clothing, gear and equipment if strict attention isn’t paid to quality. Unforgiving is a good word to describe the country me, South Cox and Shon Simpson bivouac hunted during our memorable stint in the high country last August chasing mule deer for Eastmans’ Hunting TV. And, when I say “high” I mean it. We were seldom below 8,000-feet while hunting and truthfully spent most our time right around the 10,000-foot mark. It was tough country to be sure. We hunted deep and found many bucks. Sounds like a dream right? That is what I thought, but believe me, without the right gear that dream could have turned into a nightmare in short order.
