I'm from Wyoming born and raised and have hiked every place except the cross from the Tetons to the Absaroka crossing the Thoroughfare. The hike you just finished. I'm too old to do this now but have always been curious. I don't know if Joey told you that there have been two major incidents with bears in the last several years. One involved a woman who wanted to camp for long periods in the area near Rampart. She was interested in studying bears despite what the rangers told her. Kind of a female version of Timothy Treadwell. She appeared on the road one day wild-eyed and refused to go back and get her stuff. The other was much more tragic and was over close to the Teton side. I couldn't tell how close you got to that section. In the Autumn there are outfitters that take hunters into the area and have their horses bolt, turn around and run back, as well as buck off their riders. Their ears are moving 24/7 and their nostrils are working overtime. I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse that you didn't encounter grizzlies. I think you're lucky that you didn't. But I'm old now.
@NorwegianXplorer4 жыл бұрын
Hey Scott, thanks for your insights, Yes I have heard storries from Joey and other sources about bear incidents, not the particular one you mention with the woman, but others, about outfitters being attacked by bears while hunting in this exact area etc. We were very much on guard at all times and built perimeters around our camps every night and I am sure there were many bears that were aware of us but choose to ignore us. It was very warm and we think the bears were hunkered down at higher ground to cool off. Rampart creek felt very very far out and wild for sure! Joey has encountered many Grizzlies out in the Thorofare, but this was also his first time up Open Creek and Rampart.
