    • These are the tracks of a bear who has been hanging around for a few years, now. It has been sighted by a number of people on Willow Creek. Look closely and you can tell.

  • It's probably the same bear I saw on Aug.1 headed up the road in the night time between 2 neighbors gates. Haven't seen it since, just the signs of it. It was about 6' long and on all 4s it's back was about 3 1/2 ' high. It never even looked at me and just loped into the brush to let me pass but it knew I was there, I was fairly close in my car!
