The price we pay for living in the sticks……
There has been a cougar sighting in town on The Crescent Trail. For those not familiar with the trail, it runs parallel to the railroad tracks off of Index Avenue.

Normally bear are only around as winter begins to set in. They go to the river for fishing before hibernation.
