It seems bears enjoy a good view just like any other visitor to the White Mountains in US's New Hampshire.

A photo taken on June 29 by an employee at the Omni Mount Washington Resort went viral that showed a black bear holding onto a rail on the veranda and looking at the out, at the view.

The employee became a witness to the scene after he went out to get the picture of a sunrise at 5:00 AM. 

However, instead, he caught the bear as it climbed stairs in search of a trash can. The bear moved on after the hotel employee loudly clapped and stomped.

New Hampshire routinely has reports of bears finding their way into homes, campgrounds and even apartment complexes. Last year, food shortages were blamed for a sharp increase in bear-human conflicts and the highest numbers of bear killings since 2014.
