First and last viewpoints unnecessary. Would be enough to just do High Knoll.
BEARS SEEN (11-13):
1 in someone's back garden (before I even got to the park)
1 mama + 2 cubs in the creek bed next to a small wooden fence by the trail (there was also noise in the bushes on the other side of the trail behind me so there may have been a third cub)
1 rummaging through garbage at an abandoned house
1 mama + 3 cubs arrived and scared off the bear rummaging through the garbage so that they could rummage through it
1 big mama chasing 1 (I guess) male across someone's driveway / front lawn to get him away from her cubs
2 cubs (I think) belonging to the mama above running across the road and climbing over a little wall (one came back) ... or it was the original mama chasing the male bear across the road and one of them came back? A bit confused with this last storyline. 😂
