How to keep Bears away


On Day 2 Jeremy made some delicious fish.

He caught them.
He was going to bring 3 fishing poles
2 Fly rods
and a Spin rod
He wanted me to carry the Spin rod up in this big bulky case
I said
NO!!
It would have taken me 7 hours to get to camp with that thing also on my back.

So he actually used the fly rod like a spin rod
and caught fish. I will post the video tomorrow.
So glad I did not carry that rod
made him be creative

This is Jeremy cooking. MMMM it was so good.
Fresh Fish does not taste "fishy"
It tastes like really good meat.
I think "fishy" is rotten.
We are all eating rotten fish at home.
Fish is not supposed to taste "fishy"

See that little canister with the word "JAX"
That is our Bear Container

We had to put all our food in it every night to keep the bears away.

I also brought Xander's little Bear towel
and dressed up like a bear
and held fish.
Because Bears like fish but I was dressed as a bear with fish,
and then yeah, they stayed away.

GRRRR....Oh yes, I also prayed nightly

And had this little Marmot tent to keep me safe.

And Jeremy slept with a knife and told me how he would kill the bear if it attacked us.

So we were safe.

Mostly because of Xander's towel I think!
