Idaho Spring Bear Over Bait — Clearwater National Forest

5-day spring black bear hunt over bait in Idaho's backcountry with horseback access into a 2-bear quota management area. Approximately 50% color-phase bears in this area — real chance at a chocolate or cinnamon-phase trophy. No trophy fee for a second bear harvest. Authentic western hunt experience with horse-supported access and experienced wranglers. Idaho over-the-counter tags (~$41.75) make this one of the most affordable black bear hunts in North America.
