You'd be amazed how quickly a Black can get up a tree. What's scary is when you happen to look up and see a couple cubs looking down at you. Your first thought is "cute little buggers", your second is "oh sh!t, where is Mama?".
Oh yes - THAT will make the hair neck stand up on the back of your neck!(havne't got any on top of my head)
Walking through the bush mid summer .17 AH (or HMR or Ruger 10-22) in hand, walking to the next field, you hear 'something' above you, stop and look up and there's 3 cubs 10' over your head on a big Aspen - YIKES! The ground cover is 4' high, thick - OMG where's Mama - you know she heard you coming and sent them up that tree. She's is circling downwind of you RIGHT-NOW - keep moving, keep moving, your head's on a swivel. Oh yeah - bears are cool.
"It" happens.
