on their way to the feeding across
the river.
This afternoon I saw a small
black (later trapped) destroy a camper's
food supply. A small brown was
also seen in the camp ground. There
were the only bears I saw in the
camp ground. There are about 180
teartlets & many dogs, in the camp.
They show that they have not
been bothered to any extent.
In the housekeeping quarters
the following were seen:
1 adult brown with 1 brown & 1 black cub.
1 " black with 2 black cubs.
1 young adult brown (about 3-4 yrs. old)
at the incinerator 6:30 P.M.
1 grizzly wandered in but was chased
afoully by a very large old black.
Two other blacks were present - one
was only 3 yrs. old.
Elliot seems to know his situation
here thoroughly & will remove only
such bears as are actually dangerous.
The sets of cubs in the housekeeping
quarters are very gentle. Everyone
goes around them & the adults
don't seem to care.
A total of 9 adults & 4 cubs have been
seen since departures Sale about 4:00 P.M.
