Found a track right at my FRONT DOOR. Snowing like heck right now, so the picture is not the best. But I took 2 pics with tape measure for size .

Get the gun.

How many inches

Biggest track I have ever seen around here!

Dosen't look small but can't read the tape!

Very nice. Lotta snow in your area?

You're going diagonally across the pad.

Front to back between 6 1/2 and 7 inches

Front paw or back

Make sure it's loaded....

Better picture for front to back length. Snowing worse now. Got a bigger tape measure with bigger numbers. I was wrong on the length. It's bigger !

Can't tell. With the blowing and drifting in front of the house, the light powder snow is covering everything up. Just went out to shovel the walkway, when I saw it as I hobbled out the front door.

That can't be a Black Bear. Never seen a track that big before.

Might want to hobble back in the front door and lock it.

Well ,the biggest one on my wall has a 6 1/2 " pad crossways and was 550 lbs .
Mileage may very .

Definitely not a cub on your doorstep.

It's yeti

Put a bag of dog food on the porch. You'll get a better set of tracks that way.

Up here bears get out and wander in winter, not all but a few each year it seems. The years of less snow the tracks are generally smaller bears, years with heavy snow bigger bears. Temps seem to have nothing to do with it. I have never cut a track and followed it to where it returned to the original den. Some of the tracks were less than fresh.
Maybe young ones still come out in deep snow years but know enough to stay put? I have back tracked to abandoned dens in winter and they seemed very cozy, no clue why the bear left or even why they wake up.
My only thought is maybe the big bears in the heavy snow years are so well insulated with fat and good denning they warm too much
And wake? Pure speculation.
I do know that of all the winter bear tracks I have discovered and followed, most in deep bush and some around buildings, I have never seen evidence of the bears big or small trying to eat. Late fall bears excluded I have pictures of bears waking only weeks after going down the first time and eating from my feeders.
I have seen a few times where winter bears wandering ended by going under people's buildings. Might wanna check around your place.
