Roy L Hales/ Cortes Currents - After two intensive weeks, the frequency of bear raids along Squirrel Cove road, on Cortes Island, appears to be decreasing.
According to Sandy Hoffman, who has been keeping tabs on developments, “Thursday night around 11 PM the bear went through on Graham [Blake’s] property by the trail cam, which is kind of between our properties, but on his side. It was coming out from [Basil] Creek. So I would guess that it goes down my driveway. That’s all connected to the logging road that goes out my driveway to [Squirrel Cove Road].”
“I didn’t hear anything from anyone on Friday or Saturday and Sunday night the bear was back at Laurel’s,” said Hoffman.
The bear had not found anything to eat at Bohart’s, but did get into a neighbours compost.
