It was a few days after Christmas, early evening, when I spotted a huge bear running across the road by our house. The creature was only visible under a street light for a few seconds, to take a picture would have been impossible. I briefly considered tracking it, but I had a pressing engagement in town so I waited until the next day. That is when professional explorer Josh Morsell and I undertook the task of "stalking the stalker." This is a shot of a pretty clear print we found in the snow. Click here for a sense of the size of the print (though the quarter is about 6 inches closer to the camera than the imprint). Click here for a shot of the bear's path. It was late December, should the bear have been sleeping?
