Adirondacks

Well,in the middle of my two-week camping trip in the Adirondacks I was driving with my dad when I saw two black bears. I got out of the truck and some men let my dad and I into their backyard where the bears were hanging out and I was able to stand 4-6 feet away and get this footage.

Just got done with a 4 day 20 mile hike in the Siamese Ponds/13th Lake area. No bear sitings though :( Only footprints.

Still cool though!! I love finding the different pawprints and stuff!

Standing 4-6 feet away from not one but two WILD animals. And if the bear(s) mauled you, I bet it would be the bears fault right? Sorry but this was stupid of you, not brave, not cool, just plain stupid.

Probably was. Haha. They are huge! I just saw one recently and I swear it had to be like... 400 lbs.....

I actually think I saw a bear for a nanosecond in the Siamese Ponds as it ran off into the forest - it was a big black blur, otherwise I couldn't make out what it was it was so fast.
