A chilly day spent in Rocky Mountain National Park. Went all the way up Trail Ridge, above 12,000 feet, where the wind was whipping and a light snow was blowing at this high altitude.     After coming back down through Moraine Park, the magic light began to happen.

    In the Lamar Valley in Yellowstone I came across a grizzly that had the herd of several hundred bison & calves on the run. One of the most amazing things I’ve ever seen. The griz stopped for a few seconds to raise up on two legs to give me a look and then went back to the bison.

   A four day adventure up to the Northwest corner of Wyoming. Spend time exploring Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Parks.  Camping was chilly. Saw a couple of wolves in Yellowstone, along with a few grizzlies, eagles and thousands of bison.
