[pct-l] Bear Aware...a fun story for a Friday Afternoon

[leo-spencer at comcast.net (leo-spencer@comcast.net)]

I ran into two black bears while day hiking from Tuolumne to Glen Aulin.I wasn't sure about approaching them until I noticed that both were 
wearing trail running shoes, packing Aether60's and carrying Bear Canisters.  I thought 
"cool" and introduced myself.  The bears weren't much on conversation, but 
we did exchange names and agreed to have a few beers down the trail.From ECPG at peoplepc.com  Fri Feb 11 17:02:27 2005

Our goats chased a bear out of camp at Tahoe last year. Well, chased may not 
be the right word. They seemed really curious and headed toward the bear and 
the bear thought those horned things were really weird. He wasn't going to 
stick around to let himself be checked out.
