KD,
Just incredible! That first shot with the grizzly sow and cubs is fantastic. As I'm scrolling through I'm thinking WOW what a great trip you had. Every shot is special, then I get to the Badgers and I couldn't stop grinning. Great job catching them. I don't know how many hours I stood on the road baking in the sun waiting for them to appear and I never saw them. I'm thrilled that you did and shared them -thanks.
Great, great work,

Hi Greg,
thanks for the support and the comment and viewing.
It was an amazing experience, we had our first grizzly experience as soon as we got into the park. It was the famous 399 sow with her 2 cubs (the one made famous by Tom Mangelsen) and the cherry on the top was that we were shooting right next to him without knowing who he was. I probably shared this exchange on another thread. When the bears left the location, he asked us to look after his equipment while he got his truck there. He asked us if we were going to steal his equipment. My friend, David saw the equipment and noted that it was Nikon. He replied that since both he and I are Canon shooters, there was no likelihood of that  
Regarding the badgers we spent 2 full days trying to get them, one of them was a hot day and yes we also got baked there. However the family showed up for 10 minutes and on another occasion for 5. I did get decent shots like 100 other photographers.
