Dan ,I'm sure you are not far from bears ,eagles and all kinds of wildness !
If you went to Alaska or anywere simlar in your neck of the woods , there are LOTS of bears and Bald Eagles in
those climates . The eagles where what I liked most as they are our National Symbol and rare in Colo. maybe one or two every three to for winters when the winter are tough up in the hills .
To see them flying around in the harbors 5 and 6 in sight most of the day is something I'll never forget .
I've seen one bear in the wild while wandering around in the hills . It was a small black bear that was cinnimon colored . As soon as I saw him , he saw me and he bumbbled off up the trail .
