Important to be super aware and cautious of on your adventures!!
π» Bears are out in Glacier!
All of the park is grizzly bear habitat. Spring offers the chance of seeing a bear in the wildβbut it also comes with the responsibility of sharing this landscape.
Unsecured food or garbage can quickly attract bears, and lead to dangerous habits.
Keep bears wild & people safe:
ποΈ Store garbage in bear-resistant containers.
π Never leave food, coolers, or backpacks. Unattended.
π Store food and scented items in bear boxes or a hard-sided vehicles.
βΊ Keep a clean camp and follow food storage rules.
πΎ Carry bear spray and know how and when to use it.
βοΈ Stay at least 100 yards from bears, including while in vehicles.
Whether you live here or are visiting for the day, your actions help prevent human-bear conflicts.
