[quote=Anonymous]Read "A Walk In the Woods" by Bill Bryson, it's funny and he talks about bears a lot. My brother backpacked into Yosemite with some friends and the second night, 14 miles in, a mama bear had her cub climb up and knock down their backpacks from the tree where they hung everything for safe keeping. Made off with all their food - had to share a bag of trail mix between 4 guys for the hike back. At Tenaya Lake, Calif. where there is no longer a campground, morning trips to the car for breakfast supplies were routinely marked by gawking at bear prints on nearby car windows, damage to somebody's door frames, and my favorite, some idiot who stored his cooler inside a ragtop convertible which was shredded overnight. That was before they installed metal bear boxes. [/quote]
