Back from my spring hunt... Seen a few but this is the one I wanted.. Will have to wait for fall season.. I can buy 2 fall tags so maybe will be a little bit less picky with a second tag to fall back on..

Ignore time stamp..I changed batteries and didn't reset..

I hunted Manitoba a few years s back and foolishly passed up a bear like that. It was the first one I’d seen on the first day. I passed and came home with tag soup after passing on about 7 bears. That blonde will haunt me the rest of my days. Pretty bear!

The blonds are pretty. My second bear, a handgun bear, was a blond. Early June, I didn’t notice that she was rubbed, as I stalked up to her in heavy, black timber. She was breaking up a log, and I was concentrating on being quiet. When I tell the story…..I always have to tell them that I shot a “naked” blond! 😁


Yours looks bigger than my young sow! Good Luck finding it in the fall! memtb

Agree with you that once I saw that one no other would hold a candle to it. Good luck

Them big ol bears don't miss much the way the wind swirls in the mountains. Beautiful. I love huntin' em but I have a hard time shooting them.

That's a great blond color phase black bear!

I also like blonds, and although he wasn't the largest Brown Bear that I saw last fall, I thought he was the prettiest...

Some years ago while bowhunting, my partner and I saw a redhead. I don't mean a copper color, it was a serious red. I've never seen a bear like it before or since. It was similar to this paint bucket color. I didn't know such bears existed.

Last three seasons I spotted a blond and decided that was to be the bear. Still have those tags. I'd go low and spot the bear high with everything reversing on each subsequent day. Extremely frustrating.

Every blonde bear I've ever found was a dink. Seems very rare in NE WA and N Idaho to see a blonde one over 125lbs. That's a neat bear.


Please God, give me some good tags this year....
