Where am I going?
How about we meet behind the woodshed Hoss. Pick a time and don't be late.
Here is what he said. "Here is another one same location, must be a travel route, but was apparently later the same day so who knows."
"another one" means another picture.
This is backed up by him stating "so who knows?", as in, who knows if it the same bear or not.
Lower 48ers talk different than Eskimos so I won't begrudge you for your confusion. smile

If you mean that you’re an idiot. I’m in my prime and I cut timber everyday for a living, there isn’t a man alive I can’t whoop in a fight. I would beat the brakes off you dude. Also “here’s another one” with a picture of what’s clearly a different bear, tells me it’s a different bear. As it would anyone who observes. But if you want to throw down, buy a plane ticket, you can usually find me bellied up to the bar at the Craig Inn on a Friday evening…

You sound awesome. Next time I’m visiting my buddy up that way, I’ll stop in to the Craig Inn and buy a few for us.


Stop over cooking your meat! It isn’t gamey, it’s over cooked!

Gordon Ramsey, maybe…

Wow this got rough fast. Yeah I ment another bear but I dont begrudge anyone who thought I ment another picture. I did say I know nothing about bear lol

Anyhow here is one from yesterday

Ive had this camera up since last September and these have been the first pictures of bears on the property. 40 acres and 6 cams this is the only one with bears. I'm still thinking it must be the shortest route between two places they want to be.

No worries man. I don’t like being ornery, but backing down when someone asks me to meet behind the woodshed isn’t in my nature either lol

I thought he meant another picture until you looked at it as well. That second picture is a good one for sure.

When their front legs start resembling barrels and as Waggler said about the ears and crease in the forehead, all are indicators of a thick boar. I wouldn’t pass on that second bear for nothing.

The first one is a sow, 150 pounds, the second one is a big adult male. BIG adult male. The rut is just getting in swing.

Good to hear partner. I don't have any enemies, and I ain't looking for any. I was just pulling your leg. The written word doesn't convey that very well.
Ironically, the less than clearly written words from the OP is what lead to our colorful engagement. lol

First bear is definitely a dime a dozen, second is a fairly decent boar.
