3-8-10 Bear Denning


Page and I spent the day in the high country looking for bears

We found one sound asleep thanks to a heavy sedation shot from the biologist

This is what the entrance to the bear den looked like.

Good friend of the Clark family Don Allphin along for the adventure

Got Dale Liechty?
