Bronco Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 or one of these: http://i.imgur.com/i04S0Oz.gifv Terrible outfit, sailor top with red sweatpants? No wonder the bear is so angry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbunch Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Personally I try not to leave food in my pack or tent, but not because of bears...because of snafflehounds who might chew through stuff to get at the food. I'll second that. I remember when a buddy of mine left food in his pack and some little rodent chewed a tunnel to it, ate a bit, and tunneled out the other side. I think that, short of areas with strict regulation, no matter what advice a backcountry user reads they will just go to as much trouble as they're willing to go until they learn from personal experience that it's not enough. So just do that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmack Posted September 9, 2015 Author Share Posted September 9, 2015 Well I'm back. I survived, but I'll never be the same. Bears all around us. Must have been hundreds of them. We lost a lot of good men out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmack Posted September 13, 2015 Author Share Posted September 13, 2015 (edited) Thanks Rad for the suggestion to put this in a separate trip report. It's here: http://cascadeclimbers.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/1142953 tl,dr: a great hike, some ok hotsprings, a little snow, and a good adventure. No bears.

Rad Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 Excellent. My only comment is you should remove everything above, create a new trip report, and paste it all in there. Then you'll have your own TR and record of your trip wo all the bear discussion bs preamble. Sounded like an excellent adventure, by the way. Wilderness is a treasure that captures the imagination and punishes your body. If you enjoyed this consider heading out to the Pickets sometime. Even if you don't climb anything you'll have an adventure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
