BEAR in THE HOOD JT !

[Hollis]

5:25 pm, Just saw a pretty good sized one, all black, an easy 200 lbs if not more, it was sniffin' around a bear proof garbage can, I stepped outside, looked for cubs, none spotted, then walked towards it (about 50 ft from it and I had an escape plan) and I said, "Hey!", it looked at me, and then turned and headed down hill towards the creek.
