BBR,
How fitting that you should be the first to reply :biggrin:

Would you use a saddle or just bareback?

His name is Spot! In a firm voice, calmly tell him to SIT, and STAY.

Then go find a safe place to change your shorts.

Fitting indeed. :)

I'd be too petrified to do anything, I think.

just dont look them in the eye! when I would go on my berry picking walks in Tofino, I would often encounter bears berry eating so I would just go to my own bush and pretend I didnt see him...ya kinda get used to them after awhile...good thing is they are noisy and you can easily hear them coming and grazing...not like cougar.

I was involved with almost the same situation while on KODIAK island. Saw a huge amount of bears who like to fish in the same rivers we fished.
Our guide that dropped us off in a float plane said to not mind the bears because they were used to seeing humans, and, if anything, make yourself look larger than you are. We took bear mace just in case.

The first and second time, it was disconcerting, but after that...no biggie!
