UTAH COUNTY, Utah — A couple of years ago, Tyler Tracy had his first visit from a black bear during his family’s annual trip to the Timpooneke Campground.
He and his family members were worried they wouldn’t be able to do their annual trip this year because of a bear; after closing multiple campsites over the weekend, Division of Wildlife officers killed a bear in American Fork Canyon. There are many steps you can take to protect yourself from black bears; the DWR recommends storing food or anything with a scent in a bear-safe container while camping, going with a group and making noise while hiking.“They have an amazing sense of smell, and even the young ones, they're curious or looking for food,” said Scott Root, DWR Outreach Manager. “It's not easy to survive, and so they follow their nose, and if they get rewarded in a campground, that's not good.
