Loved your write-up. Thank you so much for sharing!

I edited the OP to try to make the link more visible, but the styling this site uses really kind of hides links

Ummm... reading comprehension? Last line of OP; link.

Yeah, that's really what I encountered--both in Wyoming and in Alberta. Wyoming I'm super familiar with; Alberta was new to me this year. Weird year.

Recently back from four weeks living out of my 4Runner in Wyoming, Alberta & on the U.S. Pacific Coast. Was planned for more like 6 weeks, but (a) the wildlife was pretty scarce in Wyoming & Alberta, (b) there were too damn many people, and (c) turns out that boondocking along the PCH is pretty...

Ouch!!! And all the more ironic given how much Idahoans love to hate on California! Nice gas prices, Idaho. :)

With a username like "grizzlypath," I think you owe use some photos or an explanation! :-)

very cute!! You just want to bring one home with you. Which, of course, would be the last mistake you ever made!

yep, exactly!! I call him kung **** cub. Love that shot. Sadly, he (she?) is no longer alive, but he was damn cute.

yes. I shot mostly a 500 with 1.4TC, so at 700mm. I also carried a second camera with a 200-500 for when stuff was too close for 700. About 90% of my shots were with the first camera. If memory serves, that third photo is at 700 and uncropped… so much closer… and also not inside GTNP…

If you're asking about how far away I was in the first photo... it's hard to say. I don't carry a rangefinder. That photo was taken within Grand Teton National Park, which has a regulation that you cannot get within 100 yards of grizzlies and wolves. So officially my answer is 100 yards...

I'm recently back from a month-long trip to the Jackson Hole area in Wyoming--living out of my 4Runner and photographing mostly grizzly bears. I just finished doing all my accounting for trip, so thought I'd share an interesting comparison... and a few grizzly bear photos, because it can't all...

Realizing that I never came back here and posted after the trip. The trip ended up being 5 weeks--about half in/around Jackson Hole, a brief run through Idaho, a bit over a week around Flathead Lake, Montana, and up into Glacier NP, then just under a week in & outside Bryce Canyon NP. Had my...

Quick update from southern Utah, after about 10 days in Montana... I expect to be headed home this weekend... a week earlier than planned, but it's supposed to be +/- 100 degrees pretty much everywhere next week and I don't feel like dying from heat stroke in my little screened gazebo (which...

Yesterday I also shipped a box of cold-weather items back home to San Diego--just because the 4Runner is so packed to the gills and I desperately need every little bit of space that I can make. So I shipped a down comforter, a fleece blanket, a fleece jacket, and a few other items home. So...
