I'm no expert but I'm pretty sure the pics are of black/brown bears not grizzlies.

I'm also a big sissy city boy and we did not set out to camp with bears but they (or it... it came through camp at night and I didn't go out of the tent to investigate) we just went to go fishing.

This was at Sequoia National park.

My brother moved to the hills up behind Brookings OR. and had regular visits from dear and bear but never any trouble, however that may have been because the bear were more interested in the salmon that ran in the river on his property.
