The bears are behaving a bit oddly this year. With the cold spring and cool, overcast summer the berry crop is basically nil. The bears do rely on berries to ‘top off’ after chowing salmon, so they may be looking for any sort of alternative at this point. The wildlife guys at Fish and Game commented on the number of DLPs so far this fall. A lot of folks seem to be having uncomfortable encounters with bears, and I have seen near sign here in town in Kodiak where I have never seen it before (like in a park along the channel).

Saw a lot of bears this year which I thought was pretty odd for Oct. at elevations between 2,000 and 3, 500’. Every bear we saw (10 different bears), were feeding on lupine roots, which also seemed odd beings winter is right around the corner and lupine roots don’t really seem like the type of food to pack on the wt./fat for a long winters nap.
And some goat pictures. Some of the lower quality ones are from video footage that I paused and took a screenshot of.
A couple pictures of spike camp.
Packing a load of meat off the mountain and down to base camp.

Decent deer for a Sitka Blacktail
2nd Sitka Blacktail
The new LNT
Post cleaning/pre-hike down nap. The Kifaru gun bearer is an invaluable addition to the pack for carrying the rifle.
Notice the frontal bossing, hunched shoulders, broad frame, stout legs... typical of the primitive decision making that leads to the purchase of a competitor brand's backpack.
Lindsey and I both carried out with SO Evolution packs. Our reviews at the end were that our packs felt great and weren't that bad. I had whole deer in mine and she had all of our gear. Mine was probably in the mid 60s to 70s. Hers was probably in the high 40s to 50s. Also, the new hip belt pockets are superb.
