Jennifer Balcarras, 48, and her daughter Selah Reed, 20, were found dead after disappearing during a walk on the Snooka West Trail near Bella Coola, British Columbia.
RCMP began a welfare check Sunday after Balcarras missed a scheduled online meet-up and relatives could not reach the pair; officers found her vehicle at the trailhead.
Authorities recovered Balcarras' body Monday and Reed's on Tuesday, with conservation officials saying evidence at the scene suggested a bear was involved.
British Columbia conservation officers are trying to locate and capture any bear involved and said any animal confirmed in the attack would be killed under provincial public-safety guidelines.
The deaths shocked relatives because both women were experienced in the area, and they came less than a year after a grizzly injured 11 people on a school trip near Bella Coola.
