There was a lot of talk about the "Incline Bear" last night at the Manitou Incline workshop.

sitting at the bottom of the incline this evening just minding his own business was a very beautiful, big black bear. i kept slowly walking toward it and it looked up and made eye contact like why was i bugging him like this, then slowly meandered into the woods. and did i take its picture with my I-phone? of course not!

The other 2 rescues didn't make the news, and actually took place on Barr Trail between the overlook and the social trail, rather than on the Incline itself. Those easily could have been folks going up either the Barr Trail OR the Incline, who happened to get injured during the hike/run back DOWN the Barr Trail. Therefore, those "shouldn't" have a bearing on the Incline meeting.

I must be out of the loop as I only heard about the guy who impaled his leg - when did other ones happen and what was the situation
