[QUOTE="Guy M, post: 241019, member: 8622"] Well heck, you're used to bear like the brownie in my photo above! I get up to Alaska to fish and/or backpack every few years anymore. Love it up there. Keep running into bears though. Peaceful for the most part, so far! Only trouble I ever had with a bear was a small black bear who invaded our camp late one night when we turned in and left some of the cook gear out at the campfire/cook fire. He made one heck of a racket banging the pots and pans around looking for something to eat! He was pretty easy to scare off, but we were glad he wasn't a bigger brownie/grizz. We kept a cleaner camp after that. Dad fished on Kodiak last year - but I don't know where he went for sure, or what guide/outfitter service he used on that trip. He saw quite a few of the big furry fuzzballs while he was fly fishing. I think those paw prints in my first photo were from a black bear - but who knows? I never saw the bear. There are a few grizz seen in Washington from time to time. I've never seen a grizz in Washington, but I do hear or read reports once in a while. Our bear season is closed - but I'm going to make getting a bear a priority next season! Usually I just buy the tag because it's cheap, and I might run into a bear while I'm deer hunting.
