The editor for the Ouray Plaindealer News had a bear cub slip through a slightly open (for ventilation) window... raid the fridge and cabinets and then beat a retreat with the goodies to his mama who was waiting outside. She trained him well, I guess. And of course you probably heard about the old lady who had been feeding bears for years up at her cabin from a chain linked front porch. Well, last year a bear she was feeding reached under the fence, grabbed her legs and drug her out. She was quite disfigured when they found her... face and tummy eaten away. <br />Double sad because she died and the bear had to be put down.<br />Thanks for the story comment :))<br />markBox Canyon Blog.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07032055509766739436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4134981800236544647.post-82660549819814901302012-07-09T09:48:00.701-06:002012-07-09T09:48:00.701-06:00Hey Mark, saw your comment over on Al's blog. ...Hey Mark, saw your comment over on Al's blog. I spent a summer there in Ouray a few years back and used to take the dogs every day down to the river, there by the gravel operation, to chase sticks in the water. One day a black bear was there giving us the eye, so we went elsewhere. And My cousin Gary lives in Idlewild and was having problems with a young bear in his fruit trees, so he got out his bearitone and scared it off playing (he's in the Silverton Brass Band).

Heal up and Head out... thanks.<br /><br />Bayfield Al,<br />Today you'd be swimming mists of clouds above Ouray. Good thing I have to work at the Hot Springs Pool, I guess. Since the monsoons rolled into our little Swiss Village the temps have been hanging out in the low 70's for highs... 50's for lows. I hope your "cold front" ushers in some relief so you can get outside. And yes to your blog statement that fall is just around the corner; it is the best time of the year.<br />thanks, markBox Canyon Blog.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07032055509766739436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4134981800236544647.post-7515295292337499422012-07-08T04:28:57.511-06:002012-07-08T04:28:57.511-06:00Am noticing how much visually clearer the air seem...Am noticing how much visually clearer the air seems to be at the higher altitudes.Al Bossencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04307619781955351484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4134981800236544647.post-40588233777419385252012-07-07T15:30:54.273-06:002012-07-07T15:30:54.273-06:00That vortex shot really does draw you in.
