Snow Walker

Grizzly Bear. Canon R5 + 1.4 TC, tripod, 1/2500 @ f8 ISO 800

First, to my knowledge, this is the same bear I’ve posted the previous two times. While I’ve heard of a couple of other grizzlies that have been seen I don’t want to create the perception that more bears are being seen than actually are. That said, I was able to find this bear again last week. Actually, there were a handful of photographers already on the side of the road as this subadult grizzly grazed about 150 to 200 yards away. After a long wait and a few nice chats with some photographers I haven’t seen in several years, the little bear took a long stroll, eventually going over a snow field. It was this moment everyone was hoping for as it’s always nice to a have bear on the snow. He or she made it’s way to another mucky area were it continued it’s search for grubs, roots, grasses, and anything else edible this time of year. As the light was getting harsh, I packed up and headed home satisfied with the snow walking bear photos.
