Hungry bears are entering campsites more frequently this summer. With no significant rain, berries and nuts are not growing in abundance, so bears are taking advantage of campgrounds where food (including bird feeders) are available. And bears are making a mess! Take these steps to safely co-exist with bears during your visit.
