As a kid, I went on a bear hunt in 2-3" of snow. Loaded up in my pal's '70 GTO Judge and away we went. When we couldn't get any further, we got out and walked. Danged if we didn't cut a set of bear tracks. So being young and full of it, we followed them, darn near all day.

Never saw the bear. Saw a lot of bear hunters. Got back to the Judge way after dark, and off the mountain even later. Our folks were worried sick.
