The forest is very low and dense. I can imagine easily coming across a bear there. The bears probably use the path to avoid the dense brush. Lots of berries out there for them to eat. The bears are in the same family as the grizzly so we have to be careful. Most hikers use bells, some have spray.
TravelerIf you see a bear, hope it’s at a distance
