  Notice near Mendenhall Glacier

When walking or hiking trails be aware that this is bear country and there is a chance you may see one on the trail. Some easy precautions will help you keep safe, the first being make some noise as you walk, this will scare the bear away.

Should you come across a bear do not turn and run, just stand where you are, make noise and wave your arms as the bear has poor eyesight the waving arms makes you look much larger and the bear will wander off.

Generally keep at least 100 metres from the bear.

Review Helpfulness: 3.5 out of 5 stars
