Hiker went missing last night at the end of Hiland Rd
The bear attacked a member of the search party who was defending a young lady who was also searching

That’s terrible and you can go in completely prepared and still be killed. It’s a risk going into the backcountry.

I posted a link a week or so ago with ago of the guy telling the story about surviving his bear attach. It’s bone chilling
