weapons

Belcarra

black bears and cougars live in the forests around Sasamat Lake, and can be dangerous...not to worry, there is also a good supply of sword ferns, handy weapons if there is need to mount a defense

Nikon D90
Nikkor 16-85mm - 1/400s f/9.0 at 30.0mm iso200 full exif

other sizes: small medium large auto

Mmm, not sure a limp fern leaf will do you much good...worth a try though I suppose!

I don’t about that! Love the light. V

Nice light and shadows. Ferns might be OK for swatting flies.

Nice view of this dense vegetation with this lighting. Where there are bears and cougars, there are probably other surprises as well.

Ok, good luck with that.

Good luck with your "sword"!
This is a beautiful shot.

Amazing bears and cougars even come to those forests when they know there's such an abundance of weaponry for people's use.

Let me know how that works for you. :) Love the lighting in this one.

Thanks for the heads-up I'll keep those ferns in mind on my next hike in the western woods.

I think the bears might try and eat your weapon and the cougars, well they love playing with feathers and those ferns look kind of like feathers. Good luck if you encounter any wild things!

Good luck :) more likely a great place to hide while waiting for a juicy human to come ambling by :) nice shot !!

Lovely light and colours.

Lovely light and shadows, and so relieved to hear there's protection against bears and cougars!

If you say "En Garde" loudly half the bears and cougars will just slink away.
