My can wasn't touched, but all the garbage cans on the next two roads up to the collector were catawampus. The bear cans still had closed lids and garbage was contained. Quite the mess around the standard cans. Evidently, some folk must enjoy cleaning up their garbage, I sure as hell don't.

I took a mid-day bike ride for attitude adjustment. Right when I got close to the car park on Campbell Airstrip Road where thee are normally a lot of "Bear Activity" sign, the distinct smell of Matanuska Thunder Fuck was in the air. Evidently, the bears were adjusting their attitudes, also.

I'm always happy not to have to use the bear spray on those trails.
