Great shot, Jenny! Super lighting and texture on the coat. Bet your heart rate went up at bit!

Hi Jane. Truthfully, I never felt any danger. He never showed any signs of anxiety or anger. He was very mellow and also full of Salmon. I do thank you.

Gorgeous catch Jenny. Very beautyful pose and lighting. The guy look healthy and fat for the long winter. I just imagine the thrill of being that close and expecting everything to be OK..

Jenny, seeing him up this close would be pretty intimidating if one didn’t have all the experience with them that you and the guides have. Wonderful lighting and details on this big guy.

Description
People often ask how close I get to Grizzly Bears! Well, this fellow is darn close. His whole body would not fit in the frame. For some reason the bears want a closer look at us, in curiosity and not threatening in any way. Our guide was using oars, but he soon started the motor !
