[QUOTE="yorke-1, post: 2582794, member: 11960"] We were there from the 10th-14th. This was our third trip there, and by far the best. The previous trips were pretty short and we didn’t do much hiking since my daughter (not very outdoorsy) was with us. The goal this time was to get away from the road side attractions and really experienced the park. The only animal we didn’t get too see while out hiking was a moose. We had a pretty quick look at 3 wolves on the Mary Mountain trail on our first day, that was a great start. Day 2 we saw 3 different black bear, all different color phases, and the bison encounter. Day 4 we saw a grizzly sow with 2 cubs wile walking part of the Howard Eaton trail. We were fortunate enough to watch the grizzly and cubs for nearly 90 minutes from about 250 yards away. It was a lot like the bison up close, it’s hard to appreciate the size and strength of a grizzly until you’ve had an opportunity to watch one in the wild. That experience alone made the money I spent on the Swaro spotter a few years ago with it! And just to cause trouble, I don’t know why anyone thinks a 10mm would be sufficient protection against a grizzly bear…….. lol [/QUOTE]
