I was walking right past the first grizzly that was watching me pass at 20 away. I spent a lot of valuable time trying to get my camera to focus in the low light. I started out hiking at 4:45 am and this encounter happens at 5:30 am. Doing everything possible to keep the grizzly bears calm is my top priority. Through all my videos I try to show how I do that. This is the way I do it, but you should do what feels best for you.

    I love your videos …always such pretty scenery… ❤. But have to ask if you have ever got in a position out there that scared ya… I would be so scared to b out there just knowing there were grizzlies 😂😂
  • @DiFinni
    Beautiful out there. I'll watch and that's about it. Bear country I'll let the bears do their thing. No way would I want to be out there and run into one. All it takes is 1 bear.

    Such beautiful birdsong in the early morning, and wonderful scenery. The bears were fascinating, so lovely to watch them. I'm learning so much about Yellowstone through your videos Stan, thank you!
  • Absolutely amazing. I love wildlife so much but I’m probably a little more interested in wolves, but they’re probably even more difficult to observe.
  • Wow such beautiful bears! Probably siblings and maybe not could also be mating pair! Sure nice special treat to see them . Love that area just amazing scenery! Thank you Stan enjoyed it great job making this video!!! God bless you
  • Another fantastic video Stan. Just a wonderful looking hike in a beautiful area. Looked like a great day!
