Mountain Living

We are fortunate to share our environment with abundant wildlife.  Click below to find important information on how to respond when encountering bears or coyotes and very important do’s and don’ts. Make sure your family and guests read this section!

It is not possible for a community to coexist with bears unless BOTH people and bears respect each other’s boundaries. Baiting bears with a food reward teaches bears to cross the boundary of acceptable behaviour and increases the potential for conflict situations. It changes the bear’s attitude and alters its position in the hierarchy of the community. Remember:

No Seafood in the Garbage Cans (freeze your seafood leftovers until garbage pick up)

No Hummingbird Feeders at Night
