I'm not sure there would have been a reflection from Bigfoot's eyes.

I've never heard of the Skunk ape.  Is that one animal?

I think the fact I didn't see any reflection off the hair indicates it may have been black bear.  Surely (yes, I'll bring her into this) I would have seen the deers body once it turned.  On the other hand, nothing in camp was disturbed and I'm sure if it was a bear it would have been back.  I think I left my Coleman propane grill in the back of the pickup which has a topper shell and the grill reaked of hamburger, as I'm sure the back of the truck did too.  I should have left the grill outside.

You do know that those covers on the beds get changed once a year whether they need it or not right?   :o

Interesting note I got from the Rangers on the Blue Ridge bears are attracted to food sure, and anything that smells sweet.
They strongly encourage keeping toothpaste and deodorant in bear safe containers.

Of course the whole time I'm wondering about the deodorant I'm wearing.....  Stunk for the rest of the week, and had bad breath, but no bears!
