Trying to guess-timate the weight of a bear is difficult but my guess says it was 300 to 400-lbs, and the three baby bears were maybe 20 to 30-lbs each.

Down at 82 Cattle Landing Rd in Meredith, which is about six house lots up from the Cattle Landing parking lot, tonight at 7:30, I saw this large bear with three cubs cross the road and head up into the undeveloped woods across the road from the lake. As I passed their location, I stopped my car and backed up a bit to get a better look from about 50-feet away, and the mommy bear shooed the three cubs to climb up a large pine tree.....so's I decided to leave.

It was one great big, healthy looking, well fed bear all covered with thick black fur and seemed to be a very calm bear.
