I went to Vancouver Island this weekend along with two other friends and we each managed to harvest a bear. Here is mine:

This blackie was feeding in a ditch along a FSR and me and my friend put a stalk on him, right before I was ready to shoot a car shows up out of nowhere and scares the bear which runs out of the ditch and up to hill into the cutblock! I then jumped the hill and dumped him with my ruger mkII 30-06 right in the heart as he was walking/running away at roughly 75yds.
He is about 5'7 but and has a big noggin on him. This is my first black bear of many more to come!!

Nice bruin and nice shooting too.

very nice, dad just got back from revelstoke, some photo's of a massive bruin, couldn't connect, the bear was across a raging river that he wasn't willing to cross
here are the photos. they were taken with a camera phone, photos of the bear were taken through a spotting scope, the bear was at 1023 yards on the range finder.
