Way, way too close for comfort!
Back in mid-may the grizzlies in Yellowstone were still down in the lower valleys. On our return to the campground after an incredible day in the Lamar Valley, we saw a bunch of people peering over a bluff right next to a vista parking lot.
I grabbed my long lens and snapped a handlful of shots of this beauty.
After about 2 minutes of shooting, the bear had got within about 30 yards of the spot where we were. I came to my senses and got back to the car! Thirty yards means nothing if that bear decided he had enough off us.
