Organizers had hired guides for safety.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Bears are everywhere at Brooks Falls and, like, this is their territory,&#8221; said Kraken Partnership Marketing Director Melissa O&#8217;Brochta, who also recorded the encounter from shore. &#8220;They&#8217;re also super used to seeing humans. So I wasn&#8217;t scared.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>A troll might have been a different story.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I want to blame it on Buoy,&#8221; Hayden said on the video afterward. &#8220;They were pretty interested in his look.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The run-in happened on June 25 as part of an annual trip organized by the Bristol Bay Native Corporation in Anchorage, Alaska, with events that promote youth ice hockey. Alaska does not have its own NHL team; the closest teams are in Seattle and Vancouver, Canada.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- data-recirc-source=\"queryly\" --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"component list recirculation
