Day: 70, 6/29/2013: Blackrock Hut

19.8 miles hiked, We entered the Shenandoah National Park. Around 4pm I saw another bear. I was coming around a switchback and heard some crashing and saw a small tree shaking and then watched a bear fall out of it. He ran across the trail in front of me and down the hill in the woods. I think he was sleeping and sunning himself in the tree. It was another small bear maybe 1-2 years old. This was so close I counted and it was 19 steps to the tree (about 15 yards). It was a long day of hiking.
