[Quinten Nelson]

They captured a grizz and 2 cubs last night.  It reportedly returned to the same 
place.

I haven't seen an update on the story yet, but the first report stated that 
there was no food nor attractants found at the scene. It was reported
as a "remote" camp site. They weren't even certain which type of bear(s)
was involved.

But, for sure, there are trail behaviors that increase the risk and your book
probably does a good job on describing them. I'll check it out. Thanks.
