Grizzly Bear Photos From Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks...


Last year at this time we were returning from our fourth trip to Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks.  Since we are not going this summer, I am sharing some photos from our past trips.  Today’s post will feature six Grizzly Bears.  These animals are beautiful and magnificent representations of the wildness of the Rocky Mountains. 

The first photo is of a bear taken on Dunraven Pass atop Mount Washburn.  The elevation was 8,878’ above sea level…

This grizzly was on the road to Pilgrim Creek in Grand

 Teton...

 Flats in Grand Teton National Park... 


Remember to keep your distance from all wild animals

 and "bear spray" is effective, and legal, protection in

 all national parks.
