Day 50: Black Bear

Cold morning, lazy start. Smoke back, not too bad up high. 8 grouse! Couple long water retrievals. Climb into some unexpectedly big mountains, lots of walking on chunky rock. Lunch at pond, newts! Big burned sections. SAW A BEAR!!! Was listening to Black Bear by Black Bear, thinking about black bears, when I see one booking it down the hillside into some bushes. Small guy, probably under 4ft long. No signs of mama bear, just the little 5 second encounter, my first outside of a zoo or car! Get to hwy, 30min wait. Hitch with dad and three sons working on and filming their family gold mine. Meet Sunset at park, Keep Up is there. Walk to Dollar General, buy way too many sweets.
