Not the one pictured. He didn’t even see me when he wandered out of the forest. I let out a loud “Yesssss!” because I had ridden up there hoping to see a bear. (Both black and grizzly country.) That caused him to stop and check me out, which gave me time to fire up the camera. After about 2 minutes he got bored with me and headed into the forest towards a creek. When I got back to camp I showed the host the photo. He told me he and his girlfriend had taken a drive up a nearby road and saw a mountain lion. Jumped down from a cliff and ran in front of his truck for a while.

In 2018 I was riding back to my campsite in a NJ campground when a young cub walked across my path about 15’ in front of me. Mom was nowhere to be seen. Now that was scary.
