McIntyre Creek Corridor

Winter is around the corner, and the animal are beginning to move down from the mountains and begin their migrations along the McIntyre Creek corridor.

Sept 17th a large black bear was spotted by Al von Finster just north of the KK on 17th.

Celeste Bendall took the attached photos of a mushroom she spotted, as well as moose droppings in the Ravens Ridge area.

Thankfully the berries have been plentiful, so the bears have been busy munching, and not being much of a problem in the community, but we do live in a wilderness area, and need to be wary.

There was a cougar spotted near Jack Hulland school, so Porter Creek residents were on high alert.  I don't know how the rest of you feel, but frankly, I would prefer to meet a berry eating bear, rather than a cougar who is likely hunting for meat, which could be me!
