A goal of mine for 2019 was to bear hunt in an area I’d always wanted to explore.   I got the green light from Jess and headed out this past weekend for a solo backpack hunt, however when I arrived, my excitement wore off and I began to feel heavy.

I was glassing a basin for bears as the sun was going down, but it just wasn’t doing anything for me.  All I could think about was my little girl being tucked in at home and how better of an experience would be if she and my wife were here with me.  Hell, even just a walk in the woods would be more enjoyable than what I was currently doing.

I realized that I just wasn’t feeling it that day and as the sun went down, I packed my things and hiked out in the dark.

This episode explores what happened, why, and what it all means.
