A safer way to camp in Grizzly Country.

On this camping trip I used my electric fence. I used it this time because I took my Wildcat 4-wheeler which made it easy to carry. The electric fence weighs about 3 lbs. so I don't normally take it backpacking. I saw 2 grizzlies driving up to the area that I was planning to camp at. This is in the National Forest which allows 50 inch wide ATVs and UTVs on designated trails only. This area is just outside of Yellowstone National Park.

    Informative video as always. We love seeing the outdoors through your lens!! Thank you.
  • Funny! You see a grizzly even when you are driving an ATV!! Beautiful owl! The one we had in our backyard for a couple of months was similar, a little smaller I think with black eyes. (Barred Owl) We hope he comes back this winter. Nice video Stan!!
  • Love your channel Stan . I just discovered it a matter of weeks ago. May God grant you many years.
  • Stan, you have upped your game! Thanks for the educational uplifting videos! God Bless You!

    I’m glad to see you take a few precautions. I love your videos and want to keep seeing them for a long time to come. Beautiful!

    I must admit I’m somewhat shocked. Stan I always saw you as a purist. A motorized vehicle??? And an electric fence??? I’m blown away. Don’t misunderstand , I’m not disappointed. I just never thought I would see the day when Mr. Yellowstone brought along some of today’s technology to keep the Bears away. And yes I just called you Mr. Yellowstone. You have definitely earned the name. I would say be safe but with an electric fence and an ATV I think you’re good.
  • Ahhhh that was awesome . Nice way to enjoy a morning coffee out in my back yard , watching your great video. Those bears were good to see , an the playful elk running around. Most beautiful wildflowers love summer time. Camping in that area would be really nice , glad to see another enjoyable hike in god’s beautiful back yard. Thank you Stan

    Absolutely, some of the most beautiful country I have seen. Thank you for sharing the wonderful things you see on your outings.
  • Grizzlies can cover 100 yards in aprox 6 seconds, 200 yards in aprox 12 seconds. Grizzlies have been filmed making a full on continuous charge from almost a mile away towards their prey (in this case an elk). If a Grizzly knows you are there and decides you are prey there is no such thing as a "safe distance"
