AckleyguySpring black bear in B.C. Oufitter recomendations?
Trying to put together a last minute hunt...looked @ wicked river outfitters and they seem ok...just been burned a few times and was wondering if any body had personal experiance with someone they could reccomend? Also takin a Remington model 7 alasken wilderness rifle in 7mm saum with either 140 partitions or 154 hornadys...enough gun?

CanuckI am not familiar with Wicked River. They have a neat territory though...not too far from where my Dad's bison ranch was.
Just talked to a friend of mine, however, that is an outfitter here in the Kootenays...he says they still have a couple spots available.

RackmastrHey....PM on its way....
My best suggestion would be to talk to Aaron Fredlund at Fredlund Guide Service.
He is a hard working outfitter who kills great bears, has a beautiful area, and will hunt his tail off while giving you an awesome trip. He's the most honest outfitter I know and I am proud to call him a friend....

AckleyguyThanks for all of your help guys... I Booked for the first week of june with Aaron @Fred lundguideservice.Talked with him @ length actually last week.......he seems as if he's a honest guy.....Well this is my first bear hunt...cant wait!! Shot my model 7 AWR sunday with some 139 Hornady interlocks @ 3200 I figure that should be a good load...But i am also building a 35 whelen....will take that if its done in time......I think planning and prepering for the hunt is a whole hell of alot of fun!
