Default When Hiking in Glacier National Park

Complacency can get you... this is not my photo, but thought you all would love to see just how it can happen. This is the same trail my wife and I love to hike to Red Rock Falls. The bear was not deterred in anyway by noise and yelling. They did have bear spray ready to use...

The guy who took the photo said today:

Ran into this bear on the trail to Redrock Falls. He followed us all the way down the trail to the parking lot.

That's a big boy. He was probably headed to the parking lot anyway.
