Bedal Creek
While exploring a remote area of Sloan Peak, we followed a trail to a hunter's camp and discovered this beautiful mountain stream. While relaxing to the sounds of the water, we both had an uneasy feeling that we were not alone. By this time it was late in the day and we began to hear the faint sound of clicking from the underbrush. This was bear country and that was a well recognized signal that this was his home too. So with that, we decided to call it a day.
