If a Bear leaves a paw-print in the woods...

... does it eat the pudgy Mountianbikers? I sure hope not! After an un-sucessfull attempt at the North Peak at Pawtuckaway (it was getting dar quickly so I bailed) I ran into a slightly pudgy, very nice and very white-bread pair of mountain bikers in the parking area. It seams that they had gone off on the far side of the road and found the trail too difficult. They wanted to know if the trail on my side might be easier. I answered them to the best of my ability and offered them what guidance and direction that I could. I even let them spray themselves with my Off before they went peddling into the twilight woods on their brand-new bikes with no lights on them. What I didn't tell them though, was the when I followed the trail into the forest, about an hour earlier, there were NO bear tracks on it. When I had just walked out of the forest there were bear tracks on it! I sure hope that they were either fast or tasty!
