Great story. Thanks for sharing.
> Luckily the large bear just slowly walked off up the road. The bear was obviously just looking for food and we had none in our rv or tent and I'm guessing the other campers didn't either.
It walked up the road hoping the early morning hikers near the trail head would be setting a day pack down and it could grab it and run.
...or sometimes people open the bear lockers at the trail head, and walk off for a minute, so the bear will then do its favorite move: Grab and run.
