Sue thankfully had her camera along.
We could only assume this was a bear track!
So I went to the web to compare and it is pretty clear it is, here is an example:

How to tell bear droppings apart:
We advise the outdoorsman to wear little noisy bells on clothing so as to give advance warning to any bears that might be close by so you don't take them by surprise.
We also advise anyone using the out-of doors to carry "Pepper Spray" with him in case of an encounter with a bear.
Outdoorsmen should also be on the watch for fresh bear activity, and be able to tell the difference between black bear feces and grizzly bear feces. Black bear feces is smaller and contains lots of berries and squirrel fur. Grizzly Bear shit has bells in it and smells like pepper.

Wow! Definitely a bear.
Make sure your garbage cans are secured.
Good joke!

Garbage is secured but we are wondering if our bird feeder won't wind up knocked down and raided
A turkey is the only thing we have seen in the yard - in the very back. Expect to have seen deer there too but so far have only seen deer smack dab in the middle of the main road early morn
Up here they ask us to take down our bird feeders in summer. Looks like a bear print to me, but your comparison looks like a brown bear print. Your bear would be a blackie.
Google tells me I'm incorrect about your comparison print.
Yep, can't be a brown bear, only the black roams around here
Joke was hilarious! When you hike in WVA, there is bear poo everywhere. You get used to seeing it on the hiking trails. If is is fresh, you just get a little more alert. But honestly, they are not interested in attacking you unless you surprise a mother and cub.
