MonsterMuleys.com regular and forum moderator, Paul Comino (aka NMPaul), got his year started off on a good note.......

"2017 hunting season off to good start - I was due for another bear. Been a few years. Buy my tag religiously every year and hump up and down the mountains hoping to run into one. Actually found one last year with tag in my pocket but it gave me the slip in the rain. We had been scouting in a new unit for us in July and Zach saw 2 bears, that is more than what I see in a year in the area we spend most our time.
We went back for a bear hunt/additional elk scouting and I glassed up this young female in a nasty canyon.
Great way to start the year."
