Youse guys saying it was her fault for having blueberries in the tent. BS. Its not like that bear couldnt take the berries away. Youse guys think she fought the bear for the berries or something.
I got one better than she slept with the berries. Her real problem was she didnt sleep in the hotel. Bad move No 1.
Bad move No 2 was she didnt have a gun and choot it when it was huffing at her head.
That bear wanted meat.
Cause No 3. There is no grizzly bear season and the bears not asceered of humans aint freakin kilt.
Sheesh.
Damn Doc. You nailed it. Especially after spooking the bear off the first time.
This isn't to say bad judgement elsewhere doesn't exist. Pard and I were asleep in a tent (on a trail beside a salmon stream) on the Noatak when I heard some splashing, that stopped short of our tent, paused a bit, then resumed on the upstream side. It had reached our tent, crossed the stream to go around, and recrossed to hit the trail.
I nudged my Lab awake- he sat up, sniffed once, barked "BEAR!" and flopped back down again.
Helluva bear-warning dog.
