text: I would seem I am in the minority here because I see nothing wrong with his plan. Building easier and safer access to view the bears seems like a no brainer. This will protect both people from bear encounters and bears from the increasing human traffic. The only people that seem to be against it are the eco-snobs that would like to keep the backcountry all to themselves and not share it with anyone less capable or willing to travel unprotected into bear country. Money is what is needed to keep these bears safe, without money and the subsequent human management that comes with it, these bears would be getting shot by frightened tourists on a regular basis. As it is the tourists are regulated, and educated, and controlled so that the bears are remaining safe. This bridge will just expand that concept.
