Info from Licensor: "The video was taken after a chance encounter with a huge black bear on a walking path in RMNP. The Bear crossed in front of us and went directly into the waters of Clear Lake. It was a particularly warm muggy evening and no doubt the bear was feeling the heat as much as everyone who happened to be strolling and enjoying a warm summer evening. When the Bear left the water and came onto the path it turned toward me and at that point I decided to give the Bear its space and began to reverse my path. The Bear followed for about a couple of blocks before leaving the path for the woods. It is always appropriate to give wild animals their space especially when you have no idea how hungry they are."
