Maple Peak, Arizona (5/13/2006). Saw a brown bear wallowing in a filthy spring. He ran off as I approached. Manzano Peak, New Mexico (10/20/2001). Thick forest, but pretty sure I heard a bear walking not far from me, in no hurry. Mount Whitney, California (7/19/1992). Didn't see any bear but saw their handiwork. Eagle Peak, New Mexico (5/24/2007). We saw a black bear walking on the highway between Luna and Reserve as we drove to our hotel. Argh, Bears!
