Angela,
You are correct. We have told the Grizzlies down here in the States
not to get drunk but you know how males are! BNSF did mention in the
article that they clean up the area as "pristine" as before the
derailment. This is a big change from a few years ago when the bears
got hit by trains.
I think the Grizzlies are putting rocks on the tracks to derail the
the trains.
My son and I had a great time visiting Canada (Alberta) last summer.
We wanted to hike to the top of the mountain in Banff that has the
gondola ride up it but a Griz was on the trail and a Park Ranger
would not allow anyone up it. My son was happy to not have to hike up
the mountain.(secretly, so was I!) We took the gondola up instead.
By the way, in case you haven't heard it lately, we love our neighbors
to the North! God Bless Canada and our allies Great Britain too. We
couldn't have better friends and neighbors!
Sincerely,
bb

I bought an old musket. it's a 69 cal., three band. All the people have been
able to tell me is it is pre 1816. The only markings on it are a P M on top
of the barrel and under that is B C 1817. it has a bannet stud and no rear
site. I can provide photos if needed.
Thanks for the help
