Fooling a Grizzly in Gorman Two Camp Parson Bear Incident
An anecdote from Old George of Gorman's Station Los Angeles County recounts a Sunday trail encounter with a large grizzly. He waited to let the bear pass then followed as the bear pursued Parson Honeyfoot up a scorched sapling. The bear toppled the tree trapping the preacher before the tree sprang back, launching the man forward and turning the bear away. The tale ends with a remark on the bear record and a stray joke about windmills and sap boats.
