When RVing thru the Yukon, we were warned about bear threats.


Co-Pilot shows her anti-Grizzly Kung-Fu.

I do well climbing pines.

Remember you don`t have to out run the bear--- just your co-pilot!!

That sorta hits home..long time ago I carried my canoe down to a lake on the Alcan to fish for pickerel...When I carried back I got to the parking area I was just in time to see my International travelall fading away down the hiway, with the wife and kids inside and a bear on the picnic table

I was a big Phil Harris fan. I remember his radio show back in the late 40's with Alice Faye

Yoga bear?

A few years back I got the bright idea I'd ride my bike up the Canol rd to Mckenzie pass NWT solo, Camped for the night by all the old relic trucks, Needless to say it was the worst nights sleep I had the entire ride, Grizz all over the place down by the river bank. I ended up sleeping with my helmet on with a framing axe laying on my chest. Figured they'd at least find my head to indentify me:spingrin:
Here's a pic of the ferry crossing at Ross river.

Roger is a bit long in the tooth to do much running

Jim, Jim, Jim....how can you say that? Here's a 'recent' (meaning in this century) photo of me out-running some bears in Baja.

Notice that both feet are off the ground?

I dubbed it..."El Día de la Levitación."



p.s. See you at the poker tables.
