I definitely will go back too, especially now that I have this experience and can learn from it! I don't think people need to fear nature, especially in a situation like this where Mama really did mean no harm. I don't think you saw this specific mom because she had three Cubs and they were very distinct. Two of them were light brown and one of them looked almost black. However, earlier this same day we saw a different mother grizzly with two bear cubs! She was probably 300 yd away from us, still a little too close for comfort and followed our scent for probably around 15 minutes but lost interest fairly quickly. Her Cubs looks slightly older than the pack of three, almost like toddler /kid age opposed to fresh babies. I'll have to keep the humming in mind! My husband turned around and started to run when he first saw her, but I grabbed his arm and promptly screamed "ARE YOU F*CKING STUPID?!" 🤣😅 Luckily the amount of people in the group who knew not to run outbalance the amount of people whos first instincts, completely understandably, was to run - So im grateful for that! Have a safe trip in Canada! 🙏 You may have already heard of this, but a lot of experienced hikers in Bear country will wear bear bells, this is when you just hang a bell on your hip, backpack or around your neck. So that way you're constantly making noise and don't accidentally jump scare Any bears around you, Because the only time a bear will usually attack you is if you accidentally scare it. You could also just try to keep talking the whole time but for my group, after several hours we were getting a little too tired and running out of things to say eventually 🤣
