Mr.K, as usual, deciphering your post causes my imagination to work overtime to extract your point(s). I disagree that nothing has been posted relative to bear sign, etc. I am bringing back one of my earlier posts on the subject:

How to protect yourself from bear attacks.

In light of the rising frequency of human/bear conflicts, hikers, hunters and fishermen are advised to take extra precautions and keep alert for bears while in the field.

It is suggested that outdoorsmen wear noisy little bells on their clothing so as not to startle bears. They are also advised to carry pepper spray with them in case of an encounter with a bear.

It is also a good idea to watch out for fresh signs of bear activity. Outdoorsmen should recognize the difference between black bear and grizzly bear feces. Black bear feces are smaller and contain lots of berries and squirrel fur. Grizzly bear feces has little bells in it and smells like pepper!

"The more I carry, the less I need."
