Bears

At one stop on the Dempster, Bill spotted a grizzly in the distance and was able to follow the huge lumbering bear as he wandered across the hillside. Tourists are asked to report sightings so Bill left a note on the truck of two wardens we could see walking in the bear’s direction. We figured they knew about the bear and were possibly tracking it but we were surprised to have them catch up to us in their truck and ask Bill to fill out a formal report. They did not know the bear was just above them and were surprised to read Bill’s note!
The picture is of a pair of bears we saw on the highway further south. They disappeared the minute they heard our vehicles approaching.
