I've been to many national parks where the rangers tell you to make noise frequently in areas that have recent bear sightings. The idea is to not have a confrontation with a bear, by not accidentally sneakingo up on them. Generally they'll hear you coming and move along. You don't want to come around a corner and come face to face with some cubs or mama.
