Scariest camping experience by far for me was on a wild camping trip, between Sudbury & Timmins, Ontario, close to Halfway Lake Provincial Park. Some critter tore open my tent. Heavy, gruff breathing. I don’t know what it could have been other than a bear. I had my food up in a tree far from the tent, & I never eat in the tent. Don’t know why s/he stopped, but I’m glad to be alive. Also I was glad to find a tailor in Timmins the next day, who stitched up the tent.
