Clandestine group photo (hence from the back), the two missing members were "otherwise engaged" behind the small tree to the left, no bears in sight.
Late in the day we received a message from Jen that she saw a bear "on a mission" walking and swimming down the inlet, a quick pit stop and a delayed supper enabled us to make contact with the bear several times over the next hour and a half over which it was reckoned he travelled about 5 km. It was SB.
SB walking with purpose down the Khuzeymateen shoreline, he only infrequently made eye contact as we carefully floated up to him, definitely a man on a mission, probably a female involved? But look at those fresh gashes on his back right leg.
