Boo The Bear Predicts Another Great Winter Ahead<\/strong><\/p>\n

Golden, BC \u2013 It\u2019s bearly (sorry had to) the end of summer, and Boo is already preparing for winter.\u00a0 Lining up with the yellowing of the leaves on the trees for fall, Boo\u2019s coat has started thickening as he\u2019s been packing on the pounds, leading our local Grizzly Bear experts to believe winter will hit us early this year and be a snowy one!\u00a0 Similar to his prediction back in 2015 which held true to be an epic ski season with over 17 feet of snow and lots of powdery goodness, Boo is working the same routine this year.\u00a0 He\u2019s been eating up to 40,000 calories a day, earlier than he usually does, to put on the proper pounds to survive his hibernation during the winter.\u00a0 Who needs the Farmer\u2019s Almanac when you have Boo to forecast the winter weather?<\/p>\n
