Haven't seen a the A&W bear for a long time!

Not too often you see snowmobile crossings in town, but then,
again, in small northern towns with snow, you probably do!

About the only kinds of bears we've seen in our travels

Lots more trees.

Not sure what kind of tanks those are.

Camp Non - a sexual freedom camp? Oh, my.
