Awesome news, congrats Nick!

It’s amazing that he and his girlfriend are the only bear deaths that park has seen considering the tens of thousands who recreate there annually, often coming in very close contact with large brown bears. They really had to push the limits to get themselves killed too. Unfortunately, they...
