Bears in the woods

 

In just a couple of days, I have heard more reports of bears than I did all last summer!

Marty Coonen, after grilling their chicken for supper last night, was surprised to see a bear sniffing around the corner of the house toward them.

Jim Luedtke encountered a big bear in the middle of Hwy P, near the entrance to Big Lake campground.   Jim estimates that it weighed around 400 pounds and stood as high as the hood on his truck.

And, guests at the Carlin Club saw bears in the same vicinity:   a mom and three cubs crossing the road.

A visitor (adult)  at Bill and Jeannie's this week heard snuffling and snorting in the woods nearby, and believed immediately that it could be only a bear.   Other family members described the shock on his face as he quickly returned to the house.  

So, keep your eyes and ears open when you are out and around!     ----If you have bear news, please let the rest of us know.
