Hence my inquiry about guns (I think I need a shotgun in WY) In Banf, damn mama bear took my pack apart while all I could do was watch and be quiet. It was about 40' up in a tree and she clawed it till packs of cocoa fell out and the little ones had a ball eating em up. Took me hours to sew it up again. Scared the crap outa me. THEN, anotehr bear in Shining Rock Wilderness, NC (yes, Cold Mountain, THAT Cold Mountain) decided to take a stump apart about 5' from our heads when we were camping without a tent. I huddled down in my bag while listening to my partner cocking his pistol |

They used to sit up next to the road and beg for cookies. Have not seen any last couple of trips. Daughter and husband and granddaughter saw one at White Wolf campground area last summer. |

I think the rangers implemented a scare-them type of thing to keep them out of the campgrounds, Curry Village, etc. |

They took the dumps out of the valley and did not allow the feeding of the bears on the road. |

Still didn't see any! Even bears don't want anything to do with you! If you'd throw in some nasty remarks and name calling, paying special attention to misspell the vulgar words (for some reason) you'd sound just like your lover/clone Harry. |
