So was out in the elk woods and came across a huge pile of scat. Really old, most were log form with what looked to be a lot of grasses present. I was thinking possibly where a bear hunkered down for the winter.

What are your thoughts and opinions?

Looks like a raccoon latrine but kind of hard to tell the actual size from this perspective. Did some of it look older and some newer?

It all looked old. I would say that the area it was sitting was probably about a 2 foot circle and most the scat was probably about an inch or a touch more in diameter.

My first thought is a raccoon latrine as well.. not many animals with that kind of scat is going to drop all that at once. Or it could be Sasquatch
