I do get a laugh out of telling my hunting partners who have slept through it once we are packed up headed home. Made a mistake telling a new hunting partner in the morning on one trip and he freaked and slept in the truck for the rest of the trip lol
Its good to pay attention and realize there is bears around it’s just part of being in the outdoors in the west but it’s way less of an issue than many think. Most bears are not going to cause you problems but yes there is a small portion of asshole bears
Yeah happened to me a few times, kind of hard to fall asleep again after hearing the sniffing.
