Bears!

Welcome to the first picture post from our vacay to Glacier Park, Montana last week. Everything I read about Glacier Park prior to going mentioned bears in the park. Even our park pass receipt was stapled to a bear safety pamphlet. Luckily, all 4 of our bear encounters were from a safe distance (hence the far-away pics!) - in fact, one of the four encounters we didn't even know about until we were back home! (Jon was videoing out the window of our cabin and ended up videoing a black bear snuffling around our neighbor's cabin! We didn't even know until we were watching the video a couple of days ago! Crazy!)

Black bear - we saw this guy on our very first afternoon drive through the park. ( FYI - It's always a good idea to stop when there are several other cars pulled over taking pics!)




Grizzly!! We saw this one just behind the Two Sister's Cafe (a fun little local restaurant we visited twice in 2 days!)
