Since we didn't have this thread yet.

Nice shots, Rick. I'm still looking forward to my first close up shots of wolves.

Is that "Snow" on snow? I haven't seen her since 2017, but I did get to see Raspberry and her coy last summer. I'll be out there in mid-May this year and will surely be on the lookout for them. Sure would like to see Snow with a coy this year.

I'll post some 2020 shots in the near future.

That is indeed Snow, somewhere between Sylvan Pass and Steamboat Point.

Rik, love the shot of the fox!!!

Man, I envy you being able to see 399 and her cubs.

Wow, those are some great shots!

Thanks!

I have to tell the story about the first two (610 and one of her cubs): My friend and I drove 1600 miles from Louisiana, 2 and a half days, and entered GTNP via Moran. We were tired and still didn't have a place to camp, so we were in a hurry to get to West Yellowstone. I couldn't resist turning onto Pacific Creek Road though, and within 15 minutes 610 and her cubs popped out onto the road. What a great way to begin a trip.

We also saw 399 and cubs near Pilgrim Creek, but they were way off in a field with a huge jam on the main road, so we just moved along.

The third one is Raspberry and her coy. I get teary eyed every time I see her or Snow, since I had an amazing encounter with them in 2016 at Lake Butte Overlook. I have this forum to thank for that encounter, since I was there after reading several trip reports from previous years.

Love that "lone wolf" shot!
