When camping, it is wise to take steps to avoid negative encounters with bears:

* Do not bring food into the tent. It invites more than just ants into your bedroom.
* Clean all pots, pans, and grills thoroughly with unscented soap and water making sure no trace of food is left for animals to smell.
* Do not leave food lying around. Clean up everything right away after a meal and contain uneaten food in plastic bags or containers.
* Do not assume food and supply are safe in a car. If you must keep supplies in a car, lock it up in the trunk-It is not unknown for bears to try to break into cars through the windshield or windows!
* Do not go to bed in the same clothes you were cooking in. Keep dirty clothes and packs outside the tent.
* If possible, use a bear canister to keep foods safe or hoist your food in a tree ten feet off the ground and four feet out in a bear bag.
* Be cautious of how you dispose of garbage. Try to dispose of garbage at a designated facility away from the campsite.
* If possible, try not to bring any sweet smelling items with you, like scented soap or cough syrup. (bears can't read the label and assume it is food.) If you must bring it at all, hoist it up in a tree in a bear bag or bear canister. Try not to wear anything with a scent after 4pm.
* If the bear gets to the food anyway, do not attempt to get it back. It is not worth the fight.
* Do not feed a bear or attempt to do so. (What would you do if he found out you don't have any more?)
* If you have brought a pet with you, make sure that it is secured and on leash at all times.
