Think that incident is in Steve Herrero's book.

Jeez, that's pretty terrifying if the details are accurate.
Rest assured you will never see me in Grizzly country without a .44 Magnum or larger.
I'll browse around you tube for any vids on the elk formations today. Thanks for the heads up. I love these animal videos. I can (and sometimes do) watch them for hours at a time.
I posted some good videos in the mountain lion thread too. A few are highly disturbing, but a few of them are just plain awesome too. The one where the Tiger closes 50 meters and leaps 10 feet in the air to attack a man on an elephant before the guy sitting right next to him can even get a single shot off is out of this world.
