Finally some bears up by the Redwood pack
Been real rough conditions out this way, had a hard time finding anything to get going. Opening weekend we had 91 degree weather, but we were fortunate enough to road a bear down the road. They also had to get one good fast race out of their system. 
But we've done alright. Odds against us - out of shape, trashy dogs, dry, hot weather, and dogged out little running bears - but we managed to catch 3 this weekend. I managed to take some pictures of the bear today. Haven't been hauling the camera as it's been hot and dusty, and it's enough to carry myself!
Treed two yesterday. Aspen treed one all by her lonesome, and then they treed another. One was about 150# dark brown bear, and the second was a 350# all black bear, jumped him and treed him twice.
Here's today - I'd say 200# or so brown bear. Good fat sucker. Little nervous to be in the tree for sure. Right now we can only run one dog per tag, so we've just been running the two females, Aspen and Kelly, giving Joker some more time to hopefully get over whatever's wrong with him.
All Catch and Release here guys 



The two girls - aka our "pack"
Aspen in front and Kelly in back.
