Apparently, they have spotted signs of bears on top of Half Dome. I assume scat or something.

I bet they are sneaking past the ranger checking permits, too. :)

Bears are exempt from backpacking permits. They aer part of the park service's enforcement team, providing valuable insight into food storage in the backcountry! :lol:
