Yep, I certainly can tell the difference from a Mountain Lion and a Bobcat. Summer of 1982 up in the mountain above Endless Caverns and farther north but before RT 211. Both Rambler (my horse) and I saw that sucker and had heard it the night before and it freaked me out. It was coming off on one of the loose boulder areas that we were skirting around as it was too loose to take Rambler across. Got a nice long look. Surprised because there were talks of them being seen farther west along the WV border of the county. This mountain ridge is more isolated with I-81 and RT 11 on one side and RT 340 on the other. Still it's a vast chunk of land as I could go up there for days riding in the summer and see no one.
