wanabuck,had already made plans to deer hunt the gap with a few folks and then the bear season came up later,so what the hell,maybe double my pleasure,you never know.[hihi]
Someone was asking about hunting in Montville last week. Some one there were bears there so yes. I believe Monville is East of the 287 line so it is off limits. I hope who ever asked the ? Finds out before they hunt. I may be wrong, but I doubt it.
