			It was in Yosemite National Park that I first encountered my first Black Bear.  
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	![]() We'd just rounded a huge boulder on the edge of a mountain pathway, and were ambling along—when a Black Bear ambled past us in the opposite direction.   When the bear encountered a second couple at the boulder (who froze and blocked the path) the bear grunted, and hustled back in the direction he'd just come from—passing us again!
