I went out to the Hubble Homestead last weekend to run the dog along the river. I pulled into the parking lot and thought I saw a moose. As I drove closer I realized it was a massive 1000 pound + grizzly bear. He walked up to the front of my truck and just stared at me. When I went to do down the window he moved off to the edge of the bush. I drove forward to see the gate was closed. Sat there for a minute in the truck with the 1000 pound monster watching me from about 100 feet away. I figured if I let the dog out of the truck he is as good as dead, so I turned the truck around and went elsewhere to walk the dog. The grizzlies are eating up the elk out that way like candy growing into massive monsters. I fear someone else will stumble across this bear on opening weekend this weekend. It looked me eyeball to eyeball as I sat in my truck and its back was at least 5’5” and it was almost as round as a VW Beetle. Its the first time a wild animal has ever put the run on me.

Heads up for sure.
