I take that life if I can, with regret as well as joy, and with the sure knowledge that nature’s ways of fang and claw or exposure and starvation are a far crueler fate than I bestow. – Fred Bear

Re: Bear Attack Leads to Prison Time?
Having been in that area, that really gives me the creeps. Rough country, and I saw grizzly bear tracks out of Yellowstone park. I was about 70 miles north of Jackson WY though.
I'm not so sure about the 13,000 feet elevation though.

The Doctor said I should drink more whiskey. Also, I'm calling myself 'The Doctor' now.

Re: Bear Attack Leads to Prison Time?
Si, I wish I could tell you that I fought the good fight. But prison is no fairy-tale world, Ese. Prison life consists of routine, and then more routine.The Sisters kept at me, sometimes I was able to fight 'em off, sometimes not. That's the way it was for me.
