Widely speculated amongst friends here that is what happened when he didn't show. We give up our backcountry skiing when the first tracks are seen, normally around 3/5 or so. Tragic.

Additional information, not confirmed but on local radio- He was horn hunting and the bear has been killed.

Crane,
Does horn hunting = hunting shed antlers?

CR- Yes looking for elk sheds I assume.
PDS- Will do. They are pretty tight with info.

Makes me wonder if it was a bear spray failure.

Unfortunate and that can happen to all of us
After few sightings in Clearwater, I carry shotgun to my bear baits religiously ( buckshots )


" Until the day breaks and the nights shadows flee away " Big ivory for my pillow and 2.5% of Neanderthal DNA flowing thru my veins.
When I'm ready to go, pack a bag of gunpowder up my ass and strike a fire to my pecker, until I squeal like a boar.
Yours truly , Milan The Boarkiller - World according to Milan
PS I have big boar on my floor...but it ain't dead, just scared to move...

Man should be happy and in good humor until the day he dies...
Only fools hope to live forever

I thought bear baiting was illegal in Montana or do you bait in another state.

Clearwater as in Idaho so easy there on the accusations

Don't see an accusation just asking for clarification.
