Grizzly attack in Glacier NP late 7/7/86.
Two young men from North Carolina left Siyeh Trail and flushed a small
grizzly (sex unknown) a few feet off the trail. G.S., 28-year-old
resident of Durham, N.C., was severely chewed in the thigh. He was taken
to a hospital in Cardston, Alberta, Canada, and is believed to be in
satisfactory condition. His companion, S.H., also of Durham, was
unharmed.
Glacier also reports snowfall in the higher elevations.
