Smoky Mountain Bear-jam

Bears on the road can bring traffic to a standstill in the smokies. Here, mother bear is teaching her cubs some bad habits about how to interact with humans. These bears are on the Roaring Fork Motor Nature Trail near Gatlinburg, by the Grotto Falls trailhead. This area is an excellent place to look for bears.
