Type your answer here... Lewis and Clark named Bear Grass because they thought the bears liked it. Actually bear grass grows near huckleberries, which are what the bears were really after- so it's a misnomer. Found this out from our wrangler during a trail ride in West Glacier, Montana.

Beargrass was named by early explorers and settlers who observed bears using the grass for bedding and shelter. The plant's long, tough leaves resemble grass, hence the name bear grass.
