Adams learned to commune with nature and to become an expert hunter, tracker, and provider for himself and his Miwok Indian neighbors. Using some of his trained bears as pack animals, Grizzly Adams led many tracking expeditions far and wide through the western frontier, always disembarking from his central California encampment. He not only managed to traverse the bulk of California, but he trekked well beyond its limits as far north as the Canadian border, as far south as the Mojave Desert, and as far east as Montana and Salt Lake City.
