campers to put the tent at one point, bear canister at another, and other food associated camping supplies in a third area.


Being a big fan of MacGyver and Swiss Family Robinson, I opted to place the bear canister on a leeward rocky ledge and then add rocks on top. Should a bear feel so inclined to nosey his way into my little camp and try to devour my snacks, I would hear him and be prepared. Snugly into a tree, I put my other supplies in a plastic bag and hung it appropriately.


With the moon brightly shining over us and the air far too cold, Maya and I tucked ourselves into the tent. As I did anytime I was free- camping, I ensured that my knife and taser were in a quick-grab position. I imagined various bear-attack scenarios and designed exit strategies accord- ingly. Confident that Maya and I would be able to survive, I fell asleep to the whistle of the wind in the middle of a chapter of The Sun Also Rises. Regardless of how easy it is for me to sleep almost anywhere, my brain still adjusts to my surroundings. As intu- ition deems, I wake up periodically to use my senses ensuring I am still safe. This night was no different. I woke up around 2 a.m. But this time, some- thing was amiss. Maya was fast asleep at my feet. Normally she’s quick to alert me of noises. But not tonight. I heard something, but I couldn’t identify it. Was it just the wind dancing in the trees and playfully throwing water against the rocky edges of the lake?


Great for beginners and family fun. Thursday, April 6, 6pm; $45. Love- joy Creations Studio, 2690 Historic Decatur Rd., #201. (LIBERTY STATION)

Nope. Something else. Then I heard it. In the direction of the bear canister, something hit the ground.


Whatever had dropped the canister from the rock was rolling it around. Wide awake, my ears were listening for every single movement of whatever creature was out there. I held my breath. Best guess was a bear. I really wanted to peek my head out with my camera. It would be such a beautiful picture: the bear next to the lake under the full moon. But of course practical me knew better. I remained still. Maya continued to sleep. I wondered if a barking dog would frighten or challenge the bear. I should have asked the ranger... Soon the creature got bored. I breathed again.


Until I heard the footsteps in front of my tent. I snuggled deeper into my sleeping bag while envisioning and mentally preparing for my bear battle. Another few footsteps and then... silence.


I listened for a few more minutes until my adrenaline and curiosity ceased. I opened my tent and peered outside. The moon hung in the sky while the stars twinkled. Peace. I fell back asleep and awoke to the dawn light. Maya woke up and we shimmied out of the tent.


Wondering if perhaps it was just a dream or my wild imagination, I walked over to the bear canister.


It wasn’t a dream — the canis- ter clearly had been tampered with. Yesterday it was safely in a box. Now it had scratch marks. Welcome to Bear Country.
