Wow, how horrible! When I owned a photo tour company, we offered a photo tour to Kamchatka. Unfortunately, or maybe fortunately, that tour didn't have enough ppl signed up to make since it was so expensive.

Two words.... Hazard Pay

I mean seriously, it's bad enough to have to worry about cave-ins and whatnot. But being eaten by freaking bears.

An unbearably grizzly story.

I heard that the bears passed the miners on the trail a day later ....

What key do you sing " You are unbearably mine!" ? A-flat miner.
