Lots of sign (scat), berries, but no bear...

I was hoping this would be the weekend, but it wasn't to be.

Saw lots of scat, and berries, but no bear.

Yeah, solo. I'd rather not, but it seems to happen a lot. I've got someone to go with Labor Day weekend. That should be cool. New area as well. It's going to happen... Eventually...

Stashed a brew in a creek down from the trailhead. It was ridiculously cold and tasty:

Overall, not a bad Friday and Saturday despite not finding what I was after.

Looks like a good area! saw lots of scat where i went yesterday but saw nothing. Little prints where i was at.
A remarkable experience is one where the pain is forgotten so quickly, the frustrations and struggles are forgotten the minute you’re done.

I can’t wait to do it the next time.
