Incidents like this, and most of any kind actually, are nearly always an accumulation of errors. Yours started with not laying out the rules of the road before stepping into the field, or even before stepping into the trucks and heading into the field. There's rarely a plane wreck that isn't based on an accumulation of at least 4 and often 5 errors and I always do my own analysis on writeups of just what the errors were in order. I've only run into one grizzly while hunting moose one fall. I came out onto the airstrip to take up my position and there was a grizzly sniffing the spot where I sat against a downed tree....and sometimes napped.... while waiting for a moose to walk by. I sat elsewhere that morning. I've never had an issue while bird hunting as I rarely hunt them in bear country when the bears are out. Snake issues aren't on the radar in Alaska as we don't have any, unless you hunt in downtown Anchorage where some escape from homes occasionally.
