Bear marking site (bites and scratches) including ritual trail - multiple trees including 2 red pine and at least 1 hemlock and about 20' of ritual trail easily visible. This is an old site that is showing recent activity perhaps from late last year but I think from this spring as well. This is a small grove of softwoods on an otherwise beech/oak type forest on the edge of a wetland.
