but I was disappointed at his attitude. I mean it's his job to know this stuff and he either didn't or didn't want to bother. We have had similar experiences with some of the rangers. That said, I guess about 1/3 of the rangers were very helpful, 1/3 were so-so, and 1/3 were not interested or just ...

Thanks for the pictures Love the shot of the bison in the river.

Yes, a very brave young man indeed. According to our local newspaper the bear attacked Cummings twice, the second time came after he called out to see if his friend was ok. After initially fighting the bear, Cummings realized those efforts were futile. Fortunately, after lying still the bear left on...

Glad you got to see the grizzlies. We will head out to see if we can find Raspberry and Jam once the weather clears.

Headed for Lamar bright and early today to be one of the first to check out the repairs after the flood and see what wildlife might be visible. Well, we didn't make it to Lamar until the afternoon.

Yada Yada Yada, talk about a shallow editorial. Bear jams are nothing now, bison to me seem to cause more and will sometimes just hang out in the road for extended periods of time, which is ok, it's their park and home. Yes, a rather simple take on a very complex problem. Characterizing that the so...
