Well I'm a smaller guy, and i've always been weary of bears in the woods even if "they're more afraid of me than i am of them". My deer stand is close enough to our cabin that i normally walk to it when gun season rolls around (sorry guys!). although it didnt happen to me personally, but it did happen in my stand... one of the guys that hunts the muzzleloader season after the regular 9 day gun season said he walked to my stand and hunted the afternoon and when he walked out that evening he saw bear tracks on top of his boot tracks in the snow, so in my mind that bear was stalking him, but changed his mind and turned off into the woods. If i ever saw that in the woods i'd probably need new boxers when i got back to the cabin! thats about all the creeps me out in the woods, that and unknown sounds.
