Bear Encounter!

Well I ran into my first bear about an hour ago.  He jumped up about 20 feet from me to the right of the trail standing on his hind legs and grabbing a tree with his left ARM.  I think I must have initially startled him but once he realized it was just a puny human he stood his ground and started sizing me up.  For my part I just kept walking but he watched me until I was out of site.  He was certainly no grizzly but no doubt an altercation would have been like fighting two full grown German shepherds.  Something I don't care to try.
