Still a bit high and fast but fishable. Few people fishing up west side but we are off to explore other parts.

Mostly scouting today, only fished once towards clearwater lake, but I'll be targeting trout. They have a chinook run but I'm thinking moreso in a couple weeks and I won't be targeting them. It's tempting though, they've had a long trek already hehe.





These tracks followed the road a ways. I'm size 15 in comparison

I'm not sure. Followed the road for 30 yards or so and had a bear-like amble. Lots of bear sign, too. Not the greatest prints in the dusty road, tho.

Heavy, no claw marks ahead of print. Defined, rounded toes. You may be correct.
