Yes, I thought you would be interested. The trip was fantastic. Dave is a great guide. He said that you've already been in contact with him. You'll be very pleased, I'm sure. I took almost 3,000 shots. Have to sort through them all. I'll post more when I finish processing.

Thank you. #2 is a female, about 4 years old, who stood about 8-10 feet away from us for over an hour. The guide said she was most likely using us as a shield from the other larger, more dominant bears in the creek.

Phil. great shots. my wife wants to go there next year instead of our east coast wolf photography. I lived in Washington state in the 1970s and 1980s, and we never made it to Alaska.

Thanks, Nick. I'd listen to your wife. Remember Happy Wife - Happy Life!
