This is NOT our car, sad to say (though ours was dirtier).

We had just been watching, in the distant brush, one of 399's kids, a pretty little 2nd year grizzly and its sibling were said to have become separated from their mother (399, not 610), who, the volunteer crowd-control ranger said, might have been spotted with a boar. One of the cubs had a successful elk hunt, so even if they do not re-unite with their mother before winter sets in, if the cubs hang together they can feed themselves and may well be able to den successfully to see another spring. Since we were there, a young grizzly boar was killed by a car north and east of this area. It was suspected of being one of these two cubs but I don't know what DNA testing has turned up. Very sad regardless.

This sticker and another one for 399, with 3 cubs, is available in every store in Jackson.
