Person I know left their garage door open for a while in Center Harbor. They had Mama, yearling and 2 cubs in the garage going after the trash. Be careful. They are beautiful, though.
And even if they are up high, the bears might still come. We have our feeders strung between two trees on clothesline attached to a winch on a post. Bears have come and hung out underneath the feeders. One even decided to climb up onto our deck to see if he/she could reach the feeders from there.
