We were just out on a hike Thursday at the Castle in the Clouds - Fall of Songs trail and while walking up the trail with the family near where it meets the road up to the castle, we had a car stop and alert us that a bear cub was just off the road about 500 feet in front of us. We continued on and didn't end up seeing him or mom.
There were quite a few other people on the trail as well, so I wasn't super worried, but I did tell my kids to stop running way ahead of us on the trail! They were a bit nervous, but it was a good chance to go over bear safety with them.
