I hike in the Mountain View Park area (Sunnyslope - in the Lookout Mtn vicinity) and have heard bees near the trees on one of the trails there. (No blossoms that I can see on the trees.) I take my mosquito mesh with me now.

I didn't see what area the hiker was attacked. There are two areas, in particular, that are noted for bees.

On the southside of the mountain, I do hear bees in the ravines; always makes me a bit nervous.

There were bees on Lookout when I lived in the area a dozen years ago. Always made me nervous when I heard them buzzing around.
