The Historic Grizzly

But the fledgling grizzly-bear hunter had a lot to learn. Unfortunately, he listened to and believed much of the misinformation about the great grizzled bear that still stalked some of the forests around Spokane. The most prevalent myth was that one needed only walk to the head of a draw and allow his scent to blow down it. Any grizzly bear, upon catching a whiff of human in the area, would make straight for the man with the intention of attacking him. Wright quickly discovered that not only was this information false, the opposite was true. The grizzly strove mightily to go the other way, rather than face a man with a gun.  Reply
