On the Kenai we found beautiful campgrounds near glaciers, lakes, and waterfalls; (the usual Alaska stuff). Although we've seen moose and black bear and Dall sheep and Stone sheep and Rocky Mountain big horn sheep and elk and bison and caribou, the wily brown bear has still escaped our inspection. That is why this pile of bear scat (shit) was very exciting. If you look carefully, bits of a plastic bag and vegetable matter are evident. These suggest that this enormous pile of scat comes from an enormous brown bear with a taste for sandwiches (heavy on the mustard) and berries. We loitered nearby with cheese and crackers, but again missed seeing the bear.
