Ranger Summit	Jul 9, 2025 @ 5:19am Jul 9, 2025	Took Ranger out of the parking lot as part of a long loop on the afternoon of July 8th and encountered a lot of bear scat about 150 meters from the junction with Strange Brew (looked like it was very fresh). No sign of any bears after that...stay safe.
