Way Up North: ANOTHER Bear Attack: Kenai Peninsula

Three mountain bikers who were knocked down by a brown bear on the Resurrection Pass Trail were able to escape with minor scrapes on Tuesday.
KTUU-TV reports the cyclists came across the bear sow with cubs at Mile 7 on the popular Kenai Peninsula trail.

One of the bikers used bear spray on the bear. She left, and they rode back to the trail head, where they met a Forest Service crew.

The Forest Service has posted a bear warning on the trail.
