Wyoming Black Bear

I took my first bear today after hunting evenings the past two weeks above the family property here in Star Valley, Wyoming. The game warden and taxidermist estimate he is at least 7-8 years old. The warden said it is the biggest bear of the fall that he has checked in. After sitting for 20-30 hours over the past two weeks, I went up today just to retrieve trail cam pictures at about 7:45 just because everyone was asleep. I decided to sit for a few minutes in our blind. Within 3 minutes, he came in. My heart was racing pretty good. Exciting.
