After reading this story from Shawnee, you will see why we say that you always need to be prepared for a bear encounter when in grizzly country:

"Ok, This is not a very good picture, but I think you may get the point,

there were 3 grizzly bears that ran right by the end of my house this morning.

This field, for those not familiar with Gardiner, is right below my house.

They went into the field, walked to almost the end of it, And then headed down to the river, by the Confluence below the Bunkhouse, by my work. They couldn’t cross the river, so they walked back up the hill up to the road above us – White Lane.

At one point, one of the cubs sat down, rolled onto its back and started playing with its right hind foot, then realized mom and sibling were trying to get to the river."

Bear spray and flying on a plane are not a good combo! This story exemplifies that. If you are flying, it’s a good idea to make a plan to rent bear spray to avoid a situation like this.

A chemical odor caused a nearly two-hour evacuation at Nashville International Airport. An investigation has revealed the cause.

Here’s a great photo and a great reminder of the importance of bear safety. Always carry bear spray!

"Do I need to carry bear spray even if I don't plan to hike in Yellowstone's backcountry?"

Short answer: Yes!

Wildlife, including bears, roam where they please. This means bears could venture through a parking lot, boardwalk, road, or trail, so it's best to be prepared no matter where you are in the park.

🧐 Stay alert and aware of your surroundings.
🧍‍♀️🧍🧍‍♂️ Hike in groups of three or more, stay on maintained trails and boardwalks, and make noise.
🐻 Carry bear spray in a readily accessible location (not stored in your backpack), and make sure you know how to use it!
🛑 Maintain a distance of at least 100 yards (91 m) away from bears and wolves, and at least 25 yards (23 m) away from all other animals, including bison and elk.
📸 Use binoculars, a telescope, or a telephoto lens to get a closer look.
📞 Report bear sightings and encounters to a park ranger immediately!

One of the best things you can do to be prepared for a bear encounter is to carry bear spray and know how to use it! TrailQuipt is proud to offer bear spray rentals to Gardiner and beyond in 2023 to keep you safe in bear country.

Bears may have noticed an emptier Gardiner last summer and fall and sensed an opportunity. Overall, there were 50 grizzly conflicts in the area reported to the state.
