    Oh boy. Black bears are smart and interesting but any park ranger would tell you this is so wrong.

    Never feed bears. For an animal that normally eats vegetation, grubs, berries, fish, small animals, etc., getting a sweet apple or candy bar is like giving it crack cocaine. You’ve just contributed to and reinforced an addict’s habit and it will be back for more. If not from you then the next guy.

    If a bear enters your camp site scare it away immediately with yelling, banging pots, waving arms. Don’t let it get comfortable around you.

    Don’t leave food or any scented items out when you’re not there.

    It’s a real big problem nationwide especially in National Parks where lots of property damage occurs from bear break ins, not to mention human attacks, and the repeat offender bears are killed.

    Here’s some info from Yosemite NP about bear etiquette as a reminder.

    https://www.nps.gov/yose/planyourvisit/bears.htm

    https://www.nps.gov/yose/planyourvisit/scarebears.htm

    Here’s what a hungry bear can do to your car if it smells food or even sees a food container inside. I’ve seen the aftermath of bear breakins several times. Broken glass, doors bent open, backseats torn apart to access the trunk. It’s truly amazing how strong they are and the damage they can do.

    So, be bear safe and have fun in the outdoors. :thumbsup:

    And never even throw an apple core or banana peel out the window. This will cause a deer to get too close to the road. Or a mouse, then an Owl will try to get the mouse. Leading to a collision....

    Can't help but think about the unknowing, unsuspecting, nature loving little kid who may come face to face with a well intentioned little black bear, that's been taught bad manners by grown men. :facepalm:

    Many years ago in Yellowstone a friend witnessed something like that. People were hand-feeding a very human-conditioned campground bear. A mother went to place her 3 year old on top of the bear’s back for a photo. The bear didn’t like that so it turned and slapped the mother and child and ran off. Everyone was OK but it could have been much worse.
    She could have been a Darwin Award winner.

    The bear ultimately loses as it will be put down or relocated!

    Funny you said that as just the next day there was a group of visitors that had just arrived and as soon as they saw “Frankie” - dad was trying to show of and walked straight to the bear to pet it. Campground manager was not amused at all and cussed the guy out for probably getting himself mauled.
    Ps: thanks to all others for all the useful info about the bears. I’ve learned a lot as I am sure some other forum visitors have.

    4x innovations Sliders are on. Took about 3 hours solo, with hand tools. Like the way they bolt through the frame.

    All of them.
    When you get a second can you measure the thickness of that cutting board? I am going to be adding the front runner table to my swing outs and I can’t find hdpe sheets in the same thickness as the wooden table front runner supplies.

    I have yet to get my rig set up for a few over-landing trips. I hope to be read by October when I take the winter off and explore the south a little bit

    Complete Dumas.., who thinks this is ok, smart, acceptable on any level? Wow.., you and your friends should never go camping again. Not being mean, but seriously, 8 year old kids know better. Let me guess, also think it is ok to fire guns in the air on New Year's Eve, and shoot fireworks into dry forests..... Can't wait for your reply.

    Well might I suggest Arizona as we don’t actually have a “winter” more like a fall unless you are up in the mountains.

    Gunmetal

    It's shadow chrome wheel paint stuff

    I was shooting for black chrome like on night shades
    But now I'm kinda digging that gunmetal look
    (User error: after shooting clear on "shadow chrome" it turned matte)
    Happy mistake
