Once I was on a mountain ridge, trail was basically on the side of the mountain with a sheer drop on one side and sheer incline on the other. Rounded a corner and saw the bull moose facing me, chomping leaves. I mistakenly thought my bear bell might gently prod it to leave, so I shook it a bunch making noise. But instead of it leaving, it looked at me and then slowly started walking towards me. Luckily I'd read enough about moose and started walking backwards, then sped up my walking as it got closer, and as soon as I rounded the bend, ran like crazy until I found part of the hill I could climb. When the moose got to where I climbed, it stopped and looked around for me. Eventually it moved on.
