My favorite part about bear videos this summer have been the screams. After the reactions in this video of a bear opening a car door in Yellowstone, I didn't think that I would hear a male voice at a higher pitch. I was wrong. When Rodney Ginn realizes his Mammoth Lakes, CA home has been broken into by a mama bear and her two cubs, he pretty much just loses it (rightly so).

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 most absurd part is that Ginn's roommate didn't know what was going on, for the entire HOUR that the bears were inside of his home. Ginn wrote on Facebook: "I came home from work and my roommate was asleep, both doors wide open, so I shut them and looked in my kitchen and there she was with her two cubs so I booked it upstairs."
"[He] said he heard it going on for about 45 minutes and thought I was cooking a late night snack."

As skiers we're always talking about the snowpack and how stable or unstable it is, but what does that really mean? This slide in Hyalite, Montana is a pretty good example of 'unstable snowpack.' Triggered by a skier who made it all the way down before the face actually broke (one lucky fellow), the slide was a pretty classic slab avalanche. Our friends at the Gallatin National Forest Avalanche center broke down what happened with slide. Essentially, it was a slab of wind packed snow

Surf
Big waves are nothing new to surfers these days, but how about to skiers? California skier Chuck Patterson decided to combine two of his favorite things-- big wave surfing and skiing on some of Half Moon Bay's biggest swells. Using custom skis designed specifically for this feat, and taking inspiration from Patterson's late friend, Shane McConkey, they allow him to carve the waves as he would snow. Fitted with classic ski bindings, and worn with regular ski boots, the carnage if Patterson
