“BEAR STORY”
Campers Gene and Maire Marsden took pride in being good citizens when in the wild. While
driving the three hundred miles from their home in Colorado to the Green River Lakes area of the Wind
River Mountains in Wyoming, they instructed their children in the protocol they’d learned in the bear
safety pamphlet put out by the Bridger – Teton Forest Service. The number-one rule was “Don’t feed the
bears!” – whether intentionally or not. Warning the kids not to go anywhere near a bear, the Marsden had
no problem with the intentional part, but the unintentional part was not as easy to avoid as they thought.
Mr. and Mrs. Marsden did their best to keep a tidy camp. While the bear manual had said to hang
all food at least ten feet off the ground and four feet out from the trunk of a tree, they did what all the other
people in the nearby public campground were doing and locked their food in their little utility trailer at
night. Afraid that the scent of the bait might attract a bear, they even locked up Marie’s fishing pole. It
was always dark when they went to bed, but they perused the campsite with flashlights, making sure

nothing was left out. Taking the recommended precaution of sleeping a hundred yards from where they
cooked their food, they kept the car near their tents, unhitched from the trailer, which they left up at the
other camp. Before going to bed each night, all of the Marsdens took off the clothes they had worn during

the day while eating, replacing them with pajamas that they used only for sleeping. They were also careful
to lock the dirty laundry in the trailer. As the pamphlet advise, they took no snacks into their tents.
Gene says he now regrets not having taken their dogs into the tent at night, but they liked having
him on guard. Small animals would often come sniffing around and the dog would chase them back into
the thickets, then return to the hollow he’d dug for himself in front of the children’s tent. But on the night
of the encounter, Spike would not stop barking, and Marie Marsden knew he must be sounding the alarm
on something more dangerous and dauntless than a raccoon or squirrel. When she unzipped the tent and
shined her flashlight in the direction of the cooking area, she saw Spike attempting to hold a young grizzly
bear at bay.
They all managed to pile into the car, and with the kids sitting atop stuffed sacks full of clothes and
gear, they drove quickly down the trail, calling out the window to Spike and abandoning the cargo trailer
to whatever fate the bear might have in store for it. Uncertain whether the bear was following, one of the
children opened a door and loaded Spike up on the run. They drove to a pay phone twenty miles away and
called a Fish and Game Department ranger, who identified the bear by the white ruff the Marsdens had
seen around his neck. The authorities informed the Marsdens that the bear was a young, recently weaned
male that they’d been keeping an eye on.
The next morning, the Marsdens heard helicopters circling over the mountain above them and
wondered if it might have something to do with the bear. After spending the night in the public
campground, they drove back to their site. Wandering the area in search of clues, Marie came to a halt
below the tallest spruce. She slapped her head and shouted, “Oh no!”.
“What is it?” Gene asked.
Marie pointed at the ground where Spike’s dog food bowl lay upside down. A week after their
return home, the Marsdens read the headline in their local paper. “Bear Euthanized in Wind Rivers.”
According to the article, the Fish and Game Department had shot the young bear because, having been
rewarded for invading a human campsite, it would likely do so again.
The Marsdens knew they had been lucky in the encounter, yet much to their shame and sadness,
they also knew that the bear had not.
