Group On Hike Have Close Encounter With A Grizzly Bear

Nature has a way of being completely unpredictable. You never know what will happen when you’re wandering in the woods. That’s one reason why you always need to be on alert and aware of your surroundings. This could be the difference between life or death in nature. And that’s exactly what happened to Jessica Boshoff and her husband Dale Boshoff when they were on a hike with their friend Jordan Illsley in the Canadian Rockies.

They were just a few minutes into the hike when they came across a large grizzly bear. The bear was right on the trail in the path that the three needed to take. But when they were faced with a scary situation like this, all three knew to keep calm and make very little movements. They all started to slowly back away from the bear, in case he tried to do anything. Instead of trying to go past the giant creature, they decided not to risk anything.

When they were further away, Dale pulled out his phone and started to record the encounter. You can hear the Australians remark on the size of the bear and we all get to see the giant creature move along the trail before continuing to head away from the group. It’s truly amazing and terrifying all at the same time. Not a lot of people can say they came that close to grizzly bear. I’m do glad that the group was safe and unharmed. What would you have done in this situation?
