Looks like it's on the West side of the river South of Sherman creek wildlife area. Lots of bears in there eating all the roadkill that's dumped in the pit by the DOT last time I was in that area.

Yeah, just north of the Rez, south of highway 20 and west side of the Columbia. There’s bears thick everywhere. We’ve had a little yearling trying make our house it’s permanent residence all spring and summer, it doesn’t have too much fear either. If it doesn’t move on soon I might relocate it to the freezer soon.

WDFW forgot #5 in preventing a bear attacking you. Hard cast bullets .357 or larger at 1000fps or faster.

I know that is upsetting to the ladies and soft men of the general public but the truth hurts sometimes.

Attacks happen rarely all the time now. lol

Glad the highly intelligent and scientifically correct WA Wildlife Commission discontinued spring hunting of threatened black bears, their action seems to be bringing back the bears!  :P

On a serious note, I'm just glad the poor lady survived. That must have been a horrible ordeal!
