The mother bear charges Rodney up the stairs, panic ensues. Fortunately, the break-in has a happy ending. According to Ginn’s Facebook comments, the animals chilled in the kitchen for about half an hour, then left through the sliding door... which they opened on their own.

The ski industry has lost a legend. Last Thursday, Mike Wiegele Heli Skiing announced that their founder Mike Wiegele had passed away at the age of 82.
