ESSEX COUNTY – The doomed bear Adirondack who closed the camp on the deceptive Colden Lake is not discouraged.
The food in the well-kept camp didn’t save him from examining the package.
The applause and screams of the campers also can’t save him from sticking his nose and tents in.
We didn’t shy away from the rubber aisle for long.
“Don’t give up,” said hiker Jordan Meeder of Perkasie, Pennsylvania, on the morning of July 4 at the lake’s wooden dam, where other campers piled up to escape their tent sites.
On Monday morning, the state captured the giant male black bear in Marcy Dam and planned to kill him for his strong conditioning in huguy food.
“He’s too aggressive,” said David Winchell, spokesman for the Department of Intellectual Environmental Protection.
The Adirondack Explorer camped in Colden on the night of July 3 and had a non-public transit trip from the bear that night. At that moment, a ranger chased him, harassed him by hitting hiking sticks, and the bear wandered the Opalesmell River, allowing a fleeting video clip of his retirement.
About 20 minutes later, 3 assembled rangers shot the bear with rubber ammunition directly to stir it in the guts of the camp area. He hit me three shots to get the bear downriver. He returned in the morning, the methodical best friend examining camp after camp and advancing after locating the required plastic food boxes of the closed campers. The Rangers said they were waiting to push him towards Marcy Dam, where Winchell then said the bear was in a trap on Monday morning.
On Saturday, 3 young men described the bear’s vi to their camp the night before, when they had started dinner. The bear passed by them and the food in his hands, and instead tested his shop.
Meeder described a more tense confrontation with the bear that same night, when he approached, growling and whistling at him and his hiking wife Heidi Stevenson, from Souderton, Pennsylvania. had sniffed either of the two packages.
The incident did not deter them from making plans on another night, their food safely stored outside the camp, and they used Colden as a base from which to go hiking to Algonquin Peak during the holidays. DEC then closed the hoax at the camp on Sunday and announced later on Monday after noon that it was reopening.
The catch comes after a successful foray, through the similar bear, Winchell said, about the campers’ food at nearby Calamity Brok that bent beyond last week.
The state requires campers to blow up bear-resistant cans to buy food in the Eastern High Peaks desert, which includes Lake Colden. The minischeck issued a warning to campers to be particularly careful friends since June, when one-year-old bears were looking for their own territories and could roam spaces where they smell and become addicted to huguy food sources.

“It’s a little scary,” Stevenson said, “but it’s also interesting.”
