“In that split-second where I turned and I saw her, I didn’t think I was going to come out of it.”
ANCHORAGE, Alaska - A woman in Alaska who recently hiked a trail said she encountered a mother brown bear and her two cubs.she was hiking along the South Fork Eagle River Trail Friday morning with her dog, Iggy.“I love flowers this time of the year,” she said. “I’m always crouching down and looking at flowers to see what’s blooming, and it’s all late this year. So I was taking pictures.”“I picked my backpack up, and we continued on, and I took maybe three steps,” she said.
With a degree in outdoor education and having taught wilderness studies and survival skills in the past, Mauro said she had run through various bear-involved scenarios in her head multiple times over the years but felt the pressure with only moments to react during the encounter. She still stands by the tenet that there’s no need to live in fear, but there is a need to be as prepared as possible.
