With Bears around Mrs Pit chooses the Chopweiler !

Headed off out with Mrs Pit again while we left our son sleeping in his Pit after a late night X-Boxing !!!!

On the way to the beach Maisy suddenly lunged down the bank into the undergrowth nearly taking me with her !!!!



This was the reason, she can smell a bloody ball from miles away....



Once on the beach I checked around for Bear tracks.....



Mrs Pit had come prepared, she felt safer with the Chopweiler !!!!



I wasn't so well prepared but I can't leave this [censored] TTSK alone !



No bears on the beach but we hadn't been back on the road long when we came across this guy.....



Now we needed gas and can you believe this was the only pump for miles around !!!!!



With gas in the tank we made it to a nice coffee stop......



We stopped off at one more beach before heading home...

Looks good. Mrs. Pit looks like she likes her "bear" blade!

We were at Port Renfrew, check out what happened to this guy last year....

I have always liked that part of the country..... every time I'm out there i just start walking......

That place is beautiful. Glad your Mrs. isn't shy around knives. My Wife is terrible with them. She shouldn't even be allowed to use one ever. Worse than terrible. Not safe.

Some of the best black bear hunting in the world is on Vancouver Island.
When I was younger I used to work my cousins shake claim near Campbell River in the summers.
Saw lots of bears, didn't make much money as I would go there for a month and we would go out get a cord then somehow we wound up fishing instead of getting a second cord.
My aunt and cousin both passed away in the early 1990's and I haven't been back since the funerals.
But man Pit those pictures always bring back great memories

thanks Mate

I'm very envious of where you live and thanks for the pictures...I always enjoy seeing your travels.

Great pics as always Pit, and kudos to Mrs. Pit for her choice of knives and love of the outdoors! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Thanks for the pics, beautiful area.

Very nice. The pics of that water make me wish I never moved from the beach.

Ms. Pit knows how to choose a blade....bear or not , she'd take you out
