re: Since bears have been in the news lately. Have you ever seen one

I've seen grizzlies several times in Denali. the first time i was backpacking deep in the backcountry and we spotted our first grizz way across a valley (probably 500+ yards away). the bear definitely knew we were there, but he just moseyed along. that was the only one i've seen where i was on foot in the wild. i saw them a couple other times from the bus catching rides in and out of the park.
