Spotting a bear is always a treat, and sightings often cause "bear jams" on the roads. We were along the road to Grand Teton National Park when we encountered a bear jam! There were several rangers there to keep the watchers safe! I caught this bear just peaking out from behind the bushes along the road.... and to answer an age old question........
Do Bears poop in the woods????? I found the answer to be no... they poop along the road!!! Just as I went to shoot my photo the bear pooped!!! The grand kids will love this photo!
Along the road we stopped to take a photo of the most recognizable mountain landscape in the world.
As we entered the park
at Moose Junction, to take the road that leads along the road past the Jackson Hole ski area there was a moose along side the road in the brush! The moose is the largest deer in the world. Mature makes of this spectacular breed can reach shoulder heights of more than 7 feet, have antler spreads of five feet and weigh around 1,400 pounds. I did not want to get too close to this one as he looked huge!The white spots on the photo are not snow, it is from the cottonwood trees that were budding out.
More on the Grand Teton National Park later.
Until then,
