I have talked to several trappers over the years that found that they were feeding bears at their carcass disposal sites. Bears hibernate mostly because there is no food. If there's a steady supply they'll stick with it. A wandering bear with an empty stomach is likely to be a little grumpy!

That is why I carry an ACR Personal Locator Beacon (PLB). It is by far the quickest way for the Coasties to find you. Is it 406 MHz ? Did you have to register it ?

I just hate it when I see brown bear tracks in the winter. Rather be stuck in overflow ! An old bush pilot told me he knew of grizzly that never denned.
