She’d thought it needed her help, but now she was puzzled and curious. What was the bear’s real purpose here? To Hazel’s surprise, she found a campsite. Someone had been there recently—there was a campfire and a tent, hinting at recent human activity.
This discovery was both a relief and a puzzle, adding to the mystery of who had been here and why. As she explored the abandoned campsite, Hazel noticed the tent was left open in haste. Scattered gear and no sign of the camper made her wonder why they had left so suddenly.
