Friday June 23rd, 7:45 am. Mountain bikers have just reported a grizzly bear sighting at the top of Kiddy up Trail in Ridgemont.
The bear was heading towards Whats up Doc. With the warmer weather bears will be moving up from the valley bottoms to feed and will use the path of least resistance, trails, to travel. Be prepared and expect to encounter bears anytime, expecially early morning and evening. Make noise, travel in groups and carry bear spray.

When will we stop carving up trails for the bears to follow? We build paths that lead into town from tops of mountains. When will there be a stop to mountain bike trails? Or regulation? We wonder why there are so many bears in town.
