Re: Bears
I have seen quite a few in Ringwood SP.
I ran into one male (guessing) blocking my exit from the model airplane field. Big sucker, guessing 300+ pounds, lighter brown color. He was rolling on his back in the grass playing with low hanging branches. He was about 150 ft away. I went to get my phone to take a pic and I look up to see him running in my direction.
Needless to say I sprinted for a hole in the fence that's not easy to find. Yeah, I know that's not what you should do, but this was no cookie cutter black. I had enough real estate between us for a confident escape. I'm not gonna pretend to be big against a charging bear who's way bigger.
Worst part of that area is that at least a mile from the nearest road. I drive my Forester up there now.
Went to BFB recently and thankfully didn't see any.
