    Oh yes, several large Grizzly Bear warning signs.
    The verbiage scared my wife pretty good.
    Nice large bear lockers at the campground.
    Everything went in it.

    and trying to figure out if this guy is one of my mooseketeers or if he's new. don't recognize the dewlap and he had this weird tine on his left antler aiming for the center of his skull. he was napping and not cooperating with me at all for pics.

    Just got back from the park....last trip of the year. Was pretty nice actually. Just monsoon rain most of today. Had to change my pants and shoes out midday and drove with the defroster on high to dry things out :laugh:
    The whole place was all but deserted. Saw maybe a dozen people where ever I stopped. Was kinda nice, if only it could be like that all year!

    So jealous of your location, and surprised never saw this thread before.

    My uncle owns a large hotel in downtown Missoula, so I make two trips a year by car from Los Angeles to Missoula. I stop in Vegas, Salt Lake City, then Teton, take the back way to Yellowstone, and then to Missoula and up to Glacier and back.

    Was up there in late March. So scenic, quiet, no Chinese tourists.
