Busy Times with Bears

Hi All,

Not too many photos or emails recently. We have been working nine, occasionally ten hour days as the bears  are eating berries along the road, causing snarled traffic and some people getting too close. 

We are still loving it but it is tiring at times.

As fall approaches, mornings are crisp and fog settles into the valley along the mountains.


After the cooler theft, we put up warning signs and talked to every picnicker we encountered, advising them to keep coolers in cars or bear proof boxes throughout the area. Imagine our surprise when we found this cooler right under the warning sign! We found the family nearby and they put it away


Here's a product we never saw in Lowell!

Many of the bears along the road are close. How about OVER the road. This bear climbed a stout black hawthorn bush and occasionally leaned out over the street. Fortunately, traffic was light and visitors got great views as they drove under the bear.


Bears are not all we see. This mule deer fawn walked within 20 feet of us at Jenny Lake campground.

Love,
