I know this post is old but I have been looking into this line would like to try one but can find anyone that still has the line. can anyone tell me who still has and hunts this line thanks.
I think the advice given earlier in this post would be a good place to start. With Any heavy Weems breeding as well as some of the old stuff Steve Herd has.
I owned a direct son of Bearpath Gunner I called Bearpath Hawk. This was in the 80's. This dog was a carbon Duplicate in looks to Cascade Boulder. In fact a man from Washington state who hunted with Dee Moss and owned Cascade Easy Money nearly fell over the first time I unloaded Hawk from the truck. He said that's Boulder, where did you get Boulder?
Hawk was a super good coon, and lion hound but where he really shined was on a bad bear. He was in his prime when he was stolen off a track and never recovered. I had refused to sell him not long before that and I guess that was my mistake. He was a very dark brindle and had a big ML freezbranded on his left hip. I don't recall this dog ever running trash after he was a year old.
I owned a lot of good plotts but he was the best all around.
OK there was not really any bearpath line. Gunner was out of Steve Herds bluff creek stuff. From what I have found he was a really good one and a bright spot in the bluff creek line. If you want more info get ahold of Steve Herd and he'll tell you all about him.
