I am a lifelong backpacker but in the last 15 or so years I haven't done as much due to family, job, etc. I am getting back into it with my kids. In the past (80s and 90s) I never worried about bear encounters in the Wasatch or Uintas. However it seems like bears are more prevalent now, just a couple of years ago a young boy was taken from his tent and killed at Timpanooke campground up AF canyon, and I believe there have been some bear sightings up BCC at the campgrounds right off the highway. I am planning a trip next week in BCC with my 2 kids, and I, bought some counter assault bear spray as a precaution. I know how to keep a clean camp, no food in tents, cook a fair distance away from camp etc. Would a bear resistant container be advisable for food? Also any other precautions I should take? Has anyone here seen bears in BCC/LCC in the last few years?
