Ah, cougars, I'd forgotten about them. I've gone backcountry camping where there were no roads and had to take a bear bag to hang the food from trees or hanging mechanisms, if available. Still, those bears are very clever and skillful up on trees, so there are no guarantees.

That sounds exciting! My camping adventures have never been very far away from a car and now it's been several years since I have camped at all. Will need to ease back into it slowly. ;)
