On the trail to Burgess Pass,we passed this wooden structure that had something bearish in it (at least in my short-sighted view!).

And the day after, saw this 21 year old grizzly bear in an orphan bear refuge where he had spent most of his life after his mother was killed by a hunter. Magnificent animal, sadly kept captive his entire life in one hundredth of his natural habitat.
