IT WAS DOWN THIS YEAR DO TO NO ACORNS HERE,we had 167 last year the first day for total of 227 bears.if anyone wants to come here i can help you with phone no.s and motel etc. motel is 40 dollars a night,meals 4 dollars for breakfest etc.some cheaper. hunting license is 105 dollars but you can hunt deer too next week with the same license and bear permit..to be truthful as i am, deer are not to many here unless you are on private land .i have deer on private but i hunt public land as i was raised there and have those memories.so, come and give it a try ,you wont be sorry, best mountains here,snow on top today and none down in the bottom. also you can call camps in the summer and rent camps for a week too. you [must] do this in summmer to make reservations for bear season,if not you wont get the camp.

So how in the heck do you get an 800 pound bear out of the woods? For that matter, how in the heck do you get a 600 pound bear out of the woods? Where geographically is this county you live in? What part of the state? Do they allow bow hunting for them?

yes,you can use bow on the bear .bear season opens the monday of thanksgiving each year.its 3 day hunt. bear license is 16 dollars to hunt.out of state license is 105 dollars but you can hunt deer with that license too and turkeys etc.motels are around 45 dollars a night but most stay at camps in the area.our county is [clinton] in pa. [lycoming] was first this year,we were second.these are black bears not grizzly,funny some are as big ,ha. we have the biggest bears in the world here. 2 in [pike] county went 864 pds,1 in [monroe] county went 824 pds.i will see if i can get any pics .
