Thanks. I know very little about bears. We are in NC so the only bears we have are black bears.
I've seen tracks before packing, camping and climbing, but I haven't run across any as big as these. The ones I've seen prior to these were either on Mount Mitchell, the Linville gorge, or around mount Rogers on the AT. My wife and I were surprised to see these nearly 15-20 minutes from where we reside.

I've read that you can judge the height by measuring the width of the track +1, but I'm not sure if there's any validity to that.

Thanks again JJ, the one in that pic looks huge!
