Yassssss!! [emoji1373][emoji1373]

Will be good to finally run Fordyce in 2019! Really enjoyed the Rubicon/Fordyce trip last year (even though we had to stop just short of Winch Hill 1 due to the accident).

I thought 'brown' bears were grizzlies? We have black bears here, but early in the spring, they are brown which locals call Cinnamon bears. But in Alaska, Montana, I always heard brown bears were grizzlies. :idontknow:

Technically they are the same but grizzlies are considered a subspecies of the brown bear. But on the same note all grizzlies are brown bears, but not all brown bears are grizzlies.

This is my understanding as well...and the largest of the brown bears are the Kodiaks...
I found it funny that the grizzlies are usually the smaller of the three. I always imagined them to be bigger.

This is correct! Either way I don't want one in my tent. Outside sniffing around and stealing food is close enough.

As long as they stay out of my tent I'm alright with them. Although it is eerie waking up to the sound of them roaming around the area.
