The Bears of Valdez


Moose are sooo last month. Yea, I've seen 12 of them, whatever. Now I'm hyped about our recent bear sighting.

On our most recent work trip, we drove from Anchorage to Glennallen, where we spent four days. Instead of driving all the way back to Anchorage, we took the shorter drive to Valdez and then hopped on a ferry to the Anchorage area. Before catching some sleep on Thursday in Valdez, we drove to a spot often frequented by bears and hit the jackpot-- four black bears.

We spotted three cubs in the woods!

Then they decided to cross the road as momma peaked out from the woods
She joined them by the waters edge for a salmon buffet!
The salmon never stood a chance!
Fishing can be fun!
The birds took care of the leftovers
