The wife and I have been to and through Yellowstone and the Grant Tetons about five times in the last fifteen years. Shut out there as far as bears too.

We did see some very large bears by the highway about four years ago while crossing the Rockies from Alberta to B.C. They could have been grizzlies. I didn't get out of the car to make sure.

AFAIK, there are no Grizzlies in the CONUS only Alaska. Their cousins the Browns are a different story.

My husband and I have been on quite a few bear hunts both black bear and grizzly. We have hunted in Wyoming, Montana, Albert and British Columbia and have a black bear and a grizzly on our walls to prove it.

I am so glad we do not live in bear country I would be scared to go outside. Lol!

It is one thing if you are hunting them and you are armed, another if you are taking out the trash etc........

I was going to tell you a quick way to tell if they are black or grizzly. A grizzly has a hump on his back above his shoulders but you probably already knew that ; )
