Because of construction that was going on, some geniuses a few year's back moved a midnight mountain bike race from where it's usually held to different set of trails that are right near a creek during peak salmon season. Some woman came zooming around a corner and I believe she plowed right into a bear's hind end and it seriously mauled her. There have been several other maulings on those same trails. They tell you not to run when you see a bear because it provokes their instinct to chase you. Then again, the one person who I read about getting away was a high school track runner who went into a full sprint.

There are bears all around Anchorage, but they do their best to hide from you during the day. I've posted about this one before, but this beast got into a utility company's electrical box and electrocuted itself a while back right next to a paved bike trail that I used to ride on every day.

Did you take that bear out and got him drunk Steezo?

I think the bear put the tree branch on the trail. Very clever.

I can't quite tell if the bear in that video is real or CGI.

Harry, bears don't get drunk up here, moose do. They eat the fermented berries and crabapples off of trees and get buzzed. There was a famous one up here who got its antlers caught up in Christmas lights and then wandered goofily around downtown. People nicknamed him Buzzwinkle.
