Bear Hunt on Linville Mountain Ends in 251-Pound Trophy

John motivates hikers and Mex’s team as Edgar fires buckshot, and the bear is finally killed after a long pursuit in a rocky gorge. The 251 pound bear is brought to the settlement with meat shared among locals and the pelts divided among the lead hunters.
