I was reading something on the Bear Hunting forum that got me to thinking. Someone seen what they took to be a blond black bear. Only it was walking upright. Could that have been someone in one of those new Chillie suites Cabela's sells?
So to test my theory I put my homemade chillie suite on and went out behind the house. I called the wife and kid on my cell phone and asked them to look out back and see if they could see anything. They went to the second story bed room window. I was moving around amongst the spruce, birches, and willows. Right off the bat, both said they saw a grizzly. At first they both thought it was a bush, then as I moved they realised it was moving, so it had to be a grizzly. Wrong color for a Black bear. Wife is now threating to burn my chillie suite. I have orders (that's unusual wife has never forbid me to do anything before) not to wear it till after bear season. Wife claims it made me look just like a bear when I moved. My wife is not your average hockey mom. She is an experienced outdoors woman, with many Moose, Caribou, Deer, Black Bear, and one Grizzly under her belt. So if she says it made me look like a Bear I believe her.
