Let's hear your bear encounter stories...
Last week I was archery mulie hunting solo in the backcountry. Third night in I got woke up by a woof pretty much in my ear. Needless to say I sat up pretty quick and grabbed my pistol. I could hear it sniffing around the tent so I just kept the pistol pointed at the sound ready to pull the trigger if the tent started coming toward me. After it got quiet for a bit I heard a stick break about 10-20 yds out so I started talking to it and got out of my tent. Light in one hand, pistol in the other I looked around till I caught eyes about 20 yds away. Then, just like that, he was gone.
I stayed one more night but just couldn't sleep after that. Black bears don't usually bother me but that one got to me. That was a little too close.
