The last time I was in Yellowstone, camped in a small out-of-the-way campground (can't remember the name), I decided to go stream fishing. I followed the footpath out of the campsite and when I got to the first footbridge there were those bear warning signs on the other side of the bridge. No problem, this closer side looks like it will work. I walked back along the stream trying to find a good pool to fish but after a good bit of slogging, I didn't find a one. Looking across the stream, I saw the nice paved walking trail and thought, "oh what the heck". I crossed the stream and walked along that trail until I saw the cave in the bluff, the large amount of warning stakes, and the four lodgepole pines surrounding the deer carcass with claw marks 10' up on the trees. the last 300 yds or so to the footbridge was at a dead run.
