Hey, I hope you had a zoom lens on your camera and weren't really as close to that bear as it looks. Yikes!

I was on an elevated platform. I was within 25 or 30 feet but was up about 5 feet. The forest service has done a great job of making secure view points.

That Forest Service... they're good. So maybe I will let Gar try to get a job on the Tongass NF. Sounds like you're having fun! And I think ALL kids should be raised with black bears!!!!

Hmm...I don't know dad. That is still pretty close. How fast can you run? How fast can they run? Ash, do the math and see if Dad could get away!
