Places I like to see bears:  

Saturday, June 13, 2009

1) From the helicopter
2) Planet Earth / National Geographic (or some other nature documentary film/photo)
3) From the truck on the side of the highway nowhere near where I'm working
4) The zoo
5) Never

This Grizzly was having a late night snack with her cubs along the side of the Carcross Hwy near Tagish, Yukon. I stayed in the truck, don't worry.

Hopefully that's the only sow and cubs I'll see this year...

The Carcross Desert, apparently the smallest in the world. Can you see my shadow?

Taken from the desert - mountain name, anyone?
