    In this wildlife photography vlog, I go out into Grand Teton National Park to photograph grizzly bears. I was able to spend many days in Grand Teton during early spring doing grizzly bear photography and badger photography. Unfortunately, I was not able to photograph Grizzly 399 in this video, but I hope to photograph 399 again at some point in the future. Overall, it was a great few days of Grand Teton wildlife photography, focused primarily on grizzly bears.

Great stuff man and great moments you were able to have with the bears to close it out! So good you were able to get ahead of that crowd and path in that snowstorm and get those shots you were dreaming of!

    I have only just discovered your channel today, watching your recap of the flooding, then linking to this video. I, too, share your opinion that the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, including YNP, is the best place on this ole planet Earth! I first visited YNP over 70 years ago (not a typo!) Since my husband retired 8 years ago, we have traveled to YNP every year., first from Denver, now from the Olympic Peninsula of Washington state.
    May I also say that your videography/photography skills are remarkable! True talent! I am anticipating much pleasure in viewing all of your videos. Thank you for sharing. P.S. Alaska is my second favorite place on Earth!

    Wow, what a rollercoaster of a start! im glad everything got sorted out for you with clothes and everything! And congrats on that shot of the bear! its really something extra! I haven't seen every video yet but Im looking forward to! So maybe this question is answered in another video, but il ask it anyway. When you are in Yellowstone and photographing bears, how close will you go them by yourself? or how far in the "wild" do you go to photograph them? aren't you scared to be attacked? maybe their isn't a big chance of being attacked? Best regards from Sweden!

  • @DC41ST

    Very appealing vid (as are your others). One correction: Nebraska seemed flat to you because you drove through the state on a highway that largely lies within a river valley a few miles across. On either side of this valley is hillier land, including the spectacular Nebraska Sandhills, which occupy over a quarter of the state.
