At the delightful Bear Park, near Gwinn. A collection of teddy bears, mostly on playground equipment, originally created by George Harvala, in honor of his wife, who before she died had always pointed out a particular branch and said there should be a teddy bear on a swing there. It's been here since at least 2010. The bears "hibernate" in the winter. Explored 302 on August 23, 2019.
