Years ago when were visited Yellowstone we did not see any bear (or otters 😁). By midday on our last day I was starting to believe we would not see any this time either. The top photos are a couple landscape shots I captured as we drove in our search.

Then it happened. We saw a line of cars off to the side of the road. A couple told us there was a bear. I sure coud not see any bear.

The night before we heard about a local fisherman that was Mauled by a grizzly not far from our AirBnB. I was not interested in that kind of bear experience, but I continued to try to find this bear. When I looked using my 600mm lens on my camera, I found two of them. The last photo is a black bear. She was a long distance from us. I even added the circle so you know where to look in the photo.

We saw a lot of wildlife on this trip, but left very satisfied. I highly recommend spending as much time as possible at Yellowstone. Its amazing.

The weather was not great on the day we drove through the Teton National Forest region. The top two photos are my attempt to capture The Three Tetons up close. The clouds were so low that most of the mountains were hidden from view. I still like these photos.

A few days later, as we drove from Yellowstone to Utah, I shot the bottom photo. It was cloudy and even hazy. I had to doctor the photo to even get this view. I tried :). At least the beautiful peaks were visible.
