So my wife, son and I take off to Cades Cove Tn today up in the Smokies. The views were kinda limited due to the fog and rain. But we got a few choice pictures that made it an experience! Then as we were leaving the park we see a few cars slowing up ahead. So we pull over and take out on foot only to come up on a black bear everyone was trying to see from a distance! We got real close to this guy....maybe too close! It was a rush for sure!

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm, i have an arrow with that last ones name all over it lol. Great photos bro
 
It wasn't too crowded Wilson the weather was kinda bad here in east Tn yesterday.
We were a little nervous...but hell I'm Bigger than he was!!!!!!:D Nah he was more concerned with browsing, he was munching every acorn and root he came across.

Bill let me tell ya, if it weren't in a national park... there would have been before and after pictures of each!!!
 
Hey Tackett, the weather's not togreat today either. I'm just a few miles south of you. :D
 
Id like to see that, matt and a bear toe to toe! I dont thing our frog giggin spears would help much with a bear tackett.
 
That frog giggin was fun as hell!!! those frogs did not stand a chance when me chris and our buddy jack d. set out after em!
 
Nice pics - thanks for posting.
