I worked for the Feather River Ranger District (Plumas National Forest, same general area as the original post) as an intern one summer. There are bears EVERYWHERE up there. You could be hiking on one side of a canon and see and hear them on the other side. Ran into one eating a big ol' buck when I was the first person down a trail one morning.
Freaked. Me. Out. Probably was a Mt. Lion's kill that it had poached, though. Buck disappeared (been dragged off) by the time I hiked the trail again the next day.
