Fingers crossed that everything turns out well, but I've got a sick feeling in my stomach about this one. I REALLY hope I'm wrong.

Might be a good idea to get hold of the authorities and give them a description .. Hoping for the best on this one .

Hope this is a near miss.

Can't take much more of these this year ... We're due a happy ending!!

someone with the family let us know if there's anything that can be done to help out.

Thoughts and prayers with the family.

I would think there are a number of hunters on this forum that know that area far better then the RCMP or CO's that could aid in the search.

No way they are going to let more guys in with a Grizzly and cub in there. The area is closed for that exact reason
