Good looking bear! How'd the trailer work for getting it out? I'm thinking of going that road myself.

The trailer definitely helped me get back easier. I was about 4 miles back behind a gated road. Going down hills was interesting for sure. At times I had both brakes on and dragging my feet to slow down, that bear was just pushing me like crazy!
