Asu just has to ask about every Hemshin local we meet for a bear anecdote. And a man comes down from the cloud up on the Sal Plateau. From one of its tin-roofed houses. And he tells us he’d rather meet his demise by being mauled by the wild. Better that than being run down by some absentminded driver.
