That's really a tiny spring cub. Nice distinct collar too.

That sow had three cubs, picture was shot late August. I can’t remember if it was the runt or not. If I remember correctly, runt didn’t survive the winter.

I have just come across this page and your images are stunning. I have just returned from a trip with a photographic tour co to Haines photographing eagles and it was superb. I have now got the bug and wish to photograph bears. The two options offered are Lake Clark for 1 week or Brooks falls for 3 nights, staying on site not flying in. I have to travel from the UK so cost wise doing both is probably not an option, would you recommend one as being better than the other?
