Been 3 years but I am going to give it one more go and see if I have better luck. Last time was a bust . Beautiful country ,lots of cool sights and saw lots of wildlife that I was not able to hunt , But my target species remained out of sight . I plan on taking a couple different guns. Traditional for thick areas or up close and one of my inlines in case I happen to stumble upon a chance of a long shot.
I have 2 predator tags ( bear and wolf ). Going to focus more on one than the other but if I fill either I will be more than content. One advantage is I won't be pressed for time . Getting around in the mountains kinda sucks as I get older but having the free time since I am retired and only work part time sure is an advantage .😁
Pretty much thinking my .54 with heavy lead for the Traditional and fast twist inline with hearty dose of BH and sabotless for inline.
Will let you know how it turns out . Hopefully I can post in the muzzleloading success category 😁
This is DIY spot and stalk hunt. Not heading out til first or second week in May and will stay til I decide I wanna go home or the season ends . I am sure it will be the former not the latter. Or better yet when I fill a tag .

Where you from that you have wolves and bear are considered a predator?

I hunted a couple time in the Stolle Meadows area around Cascade back in the 90s. I shot a beautiful black bear that was a blonde phase with cinnamon colored legs.
Be sure to make a plan and put it on the dash of your vehicle just in case. (And follow your plan)

If i end up as bear poo I am blaming you cause I am using your 465 in a super 91 as my primary weapon.
My GPH is only if I am hiking around thick areas in the brush.

Looks like you are off the hook. Guess I have to use a minimum of 50 cal for bear even during the any weapon season. So that means knight mountaineer and omega both in 50 cal. Which is to bad .
