I really like it when a plan comes together ! This is a third North Central MA location that that has triggered my camera traps with a bear. Hiking a few weeks back I noticed an area of ferns that were trampled down leading into the wood-line. At first It looked to be deer or maybe moose. Closer investigation showed the fern stems were all bent as if  a foot from a person cut through the area. I thought that might be possible but most likely not given its location,  so I set a camera trap at the base of a larger white pine tree.
Love it when a plan comes together!
