THE BEAR FACTS-Acorn publisher Jim Rule inspects a set of bear tracks that he happened to see while backpacking in the Sespe Wilderness north of Fillmore last weekend. In the closeup, notice the claw marks at the top of each toe pad. Although the tracks were somewhat fresh, the bear was nowhere to be seen.
