The bear I mentioned. Turns out (after closer inspection and research) it is likely a ~400lb male black bear. At one point, I was about 10′ from him.

@cdevroe incredible!!! Have never seen one in the wild. What general area in PA? I’m in central pa and beginning to explore state parks with my family as a weekend activity.
@aa I am in northeastern pa. But there are 800,000 black bears in the wild and they live just about everywhere in PA. So I'm sure you will stumble across one if you're quiet on your hikes.
@johnjohnston To see an animal so clearly at the top of the food chain in the area... that doesn't have many cares in the world... is so cool. Once they get to this size they really have no thing or no one to worry about.
