A 45-year-old Calgary man has been taken to hospital after he was attacked by a bear on the Great Divide Trail, on the Alberta-British Columbia border northeast of Sparwood.
Yesterday at 11:19am, Crowsnest Pass RCMP learned that one man had been attacked by a bear and had extensive injuries. He is still in hospital being treated for his injuries.
RCMP say no matter what your experience level is; while exploring the wilderness, SOS devices are an essential tool for anyone who may find themselves in a emergency situation.
