Today, when I walked our Chessie on the 15-acre parcel I co-own with Trae and 2 others I stopped dead in stride. Before me as clear as can be was a fresh set of mountain lion tracks. I was glad to have my dog with me. I scanned every tree, but didn't see the cougar. A couple of months ago it was a grizzly back there. Kinda keeps you on your toes!
It's this kind of stuff that keeps me from going to Yellowstone for camping. How do you handle yourself, or what do you do to make sure there isn't a grizzly or mountain lion trying to sneak up on you?
I imagine you carry a rifle, but what do you do to make sure your surroundings are always clear so that an animal can't sneak up on you? Also, what kind of places do you avoid, that may not be immediately obvious (like a cave or den or something)?
