Now have been thinking of this for awhile of starting a thread where we here could post our Bear Stories that we have had while we have been camping and hiking out in the wilds. We all or most of us here probably have several or quite a few close encounters with Bears. I know that I personally have a bunch. In my years of hiking, have had maybe 2 or 3 dozen super close encounters with Grizzles up in especially the Greater Yellowstone Country. Guess as for myself on this do think more as it relates to Grizzlies then to Black Bears for have never been threatened or endangered by a Black Bear. But a good Black Bear story is also welcomed. Do know that there are several of us here who have had some close encounters with the Bears. In these stories also we can all learn something do think.
As for this thread, not only post your Bear Encounters, but do you have any pertinent advice to give to others when hiking in Grizzly Country - Bear Country. Have you or a friend of yours ever been mauled, injured, or even killed by a Bear? If you would like to post the story then feel free to. How many of us have had some close Grizzly or Black Bear encounter. Now since it is winter and how long till we here can get back into that good High Country, soooo let's here the stories ....
And I will start in the next post we several of my own close Grizzly Bear encounters for everyone.
