RE: You Never Know…… My Actifit Report Card: May 9 2025

!LOLZ, I promptly turned around and told @silvertop there's a bear and I went one way, he headed the other and I told him not that way as you will meet it head on! So we turned and went the other way. I really wanted to run although you're not supposed to.

Then a second encounter we had was about 2 years ago in another location but on the same network of trails. A friend had joined us and we were coming down a hill when a baby bear ran across the trail about 30' feet in front of us. It was kind of funny as no one said a word, but we all three backed up without turning around. Where there's baby, there is mama too, and that was one bear we didn't want to encounter! We had backed up about 50 feet or so and just stood there talking quietly waiting to see if she would cross the trail as well. We stood there for 15 minutes waiting and nothing. So we slowly ventured forward and got down the hill and headed home. It was a sobering moment for sure!

Thanks for enquiring! Take care and have a lovely day!
