I have been doing bears all day and trying to count the number of bears I saw while living in Alaska... The side wall between my house and the neighbor's was a bear trail back to the glacier and the salmon streams. Certain times of the year I would see 8 or more every day. I lived in that house over 12 yrs. Then add in the ones I saw on the trails while waking the dog... most were black bears and never had a problem but never let guard down and always had spray and a gun. The browns are just cranky by nature and ya just leave em alone and stay out of their way if you can.
wow, that sounds beyond amazing. Do you have any pictures from that era? I would love to see any of that area, the trail, the bears, the fish or glaciers.
