:lol: ...only an old grizzly fart like you would notice that. :? :P
But I saw a scene just like this more than once in your neighborhood...only Blackies of course. Many, many times ...I've seen young cubs on the road in the Spring...and the hair on the back of your neck says RUN DUMMY RUN :P We are getting more and more Bear here again too. We have one that is always knocking over trash cans around town. I remember as a kid...we use to get visited several times a week. It was my job to get outta bed and go out back and bang pots and pans together to chase them away. We had an outdoor outhouse then too. They would tip that over. :evil:

My nomination for BRUTAL highway is the 502 in northwestern ontario between international falls and dryden.
16% grade! YES SIXTEEN PERCENT. Not very long though. Other then that, the highway is pretty damn narrow and windy. Could be worse though, but that 16% takes the cake. |
