What a great story! We have never made it to Trout Lake, but always wanted to, and if there is a chance of seeing an otter or two ... well ... How long is the hike from the Trout Lake trail head? I'd love to give it a try. Anyway, thanks for sharing, loved the report! And congrats on the otters (and...

Awwwww -- SO cute! Love the bear photos, and the coyote is amazing! Glad you were able to get them on, and thanks for sharing!

What a great report! You saw SO many great sights, and you really have a way of helping me see what you are seeing. It was a fun read! We'll be heading up there in a while and hope we can see even half as much as you did (well, actually, hope was see at least as much, or more, but ... :D :D). Quick ...

So cute! Thanks for the photos. Are those badgers visible from the Hitching Post pullout? I may be willing to wait for several hours for a chance to see this! But if I don't get a chance to see this, thanks for the photos! They are great!

Great report! Thanks so much. I had so much fun reading it and experiencing all of it with you. It was almost like being there (or at least the next best thing when you can't be there :)). We'll be there in a little while and your great stories have us SO excited! Hope it won't be TOO crowded but do...

That's what folks called them when we stopped to watch. It was on the mountains just a little ways past Trout Lake trailhead pullout. There were three "fingers" of snow on the top of the hills, and the folks helping us find the bears said, "See those fingers (of snow) up there They are just a ways f...
