I heard from one of my work connections on FB that his brother in law, Michael Soltis, was mauled and killed by a brown bear while on a hike near his home in Alaska.
I don't know any more details about the attack than what's in that link, but still a very sad story. Soltis leaves behind his fiancee, who is currently carrying their child. If any OBers feel compelled to support his fiance and soon-to-be-child, it can be done at the GoFund me page linked below.

A powerful reminder to always maintain situational awareness in the outdoors. Can never be too careful.
