[QUOTE="jakeman, post: 3364059, member: 10690"] I've never seen a black black bear. Everyone I've ever seen was cinnamon, but I've only seen them in NM and Colorado. I had one cross the road in broad daylight a few years back west of Red River, NM. He was just strolling when I saw him and then he looked toward the car and took off like a lightening bolt, and went straight up the mountain like it was flat ground. First time I'd ever seen one hauling ass like that, and I'm telling you he was m o v i n g. I stopped where he crossed the road and we watched him climb up about 100 yds before he turned around and started watching us. There had been a light snow that October morning and I took some pics of his tracks in the snow next to my foot and hand. They gots some really big feet! I was trout fishing up in Colorado one time, and it was a 4 hour horseback ride from the end of the forest service road back into our camp site. We were way back in the wilderness. We were sitting in camp one morning glassing some elk that were feeding across the grassy top of a rock slide when my buddy told me to look at the bottom of the rock slide, and there was a big ole brown bear eating berries. We watched him for probably 30 minutes before he stepped back into the brush. It wasn't all that thick, but when his butt cleared the edge of the woods he just vanished. Melted into the timber. It was like he was never there. It was really neat to watch him and it was even cooler when he just vanished like that. He was as brown as a Kodiak, but clearly a black bear. No clue how big, but we saw some fresh scat on the horse trail out a few days later, and anything that would leave a pile like that I don't wanna mess with. Bears are cool. [/QUOTE]
