      I would agree that if you have sasquatches around, the bears are probably not.    It's funny that the most famous nighttime sasquatch terror stories are the kidnappings of Albert Ostman and Muchalat Harry, both of which occurred in the 1920's........also when the Ape Canyon cabin attack occurred. No (or little known) kidnappings since.    A sasquatch kidnapping might still beat a bear mauling while wrapped up in a tent...........

      Merry Christmas to all, and a Happy New Year!   Catching up on some interesting pictures....cheers:)

      Yeah, that is terrifying.    Being trapped in tent fabric, maybe unable to free your arms and legs to put up a fight, while being eaten.   I share that.    In a way that's why I take a strange comfort in sensing the big folks near camp.   My hope is the bears will stay away to avoid them.   Might seem weird to people who are particularly afraid of bigfoot and I get that, but there is a hierarchy of concern and BF is nowhere near the top of my personal list.        Snakes don't bother me too much.   I was bitten by a rattlesnake once .. I didn't care for it.  I'm careful with snakes but they don't give me the visceral heebie jeebies the way spiders do.   I shoot spiders.   Around home my GF takes care of the spiders, I take care of any rodents (which affect her like spiders do me) .. it's a mutually acceptable tradeoff.       Spiders + bears are why I like a mesh bug bivy for backpacking.   Keeps the crawlies away but I can see around me if I hear something.    Hand on sidearm .. yes .. and flashlight in the other.   Being able to see is the great equalizer.   Reminds me of the saying about "in the land of the blind, the one eyed man is king."

      Nah, HOAX!!  There's a secret society of hoaxers that go around and plant bigfoot tracks so that unsuspecting hikers/snowplow operators/etc. will find them.  Others in their group run around in Bigfoot costumes, anytime, anywhere.  Sorry.  Just feeling snippy this morning and need more coffee.    In fact, I felt so snippy that I forgot to hit "Submit Reply" and will have to drink twice the usual coffee tomorrow morning....

      Most definitely, if not in grizzly country........but sasquatches might be "human"...........   Tom lions and mature boar black bears are very definitely predators of solitary people, especially kids and small women. I don't fear wolves at all now, having numerous encounters with them at face to face range.........unless there's a pack of them. Even then, they've never snuck up on me. I seem to have the body language that works with them.  I've never heard of a lion dragging somebody out of a tent at night, but I don't have to worry about them up here. That's my ultimate bear fear. I feel a lot better about it if I think I can get my hand on my sidearm. At least that's what I tell myself.    Vipers are my nightmare. Bears are easy.
