We love seeing Bears and we see them every year near campsite 33 during peak camping season. They are almost always going the opposite direction trying their best to get away from us and never in the campsite area. That being said the much bigger concern at every campsite we visit is the common ground squirrel, Gray Jays and other birds that are camping with us awaiting their opportunity to swoop in and steal our food. It seems to happen with every camping trip so we like the Bear Vault product for all the other hungry visitors. Check our their website for more details. bearvault.com
