I was on a similar switchback. The only thing different was that I saw the bird wasn't moving which clued me in that something was very wrong.

Did you find out what it was? The bear pictures, it was hard to tell, but I couldn't see the hump - you sure they were grizzlies? Either way, dangerous all the same. I'm so jealous. Being afraid of the bears is what got you through this encounter. You should still be afraid of them for future encounters. HAM sucked. I would have rather been out at the Tetons with the bears.lisazillahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08637138815254676205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14196086.post-57030066388355828212007-05-06T12:22:00.000-04:002007-05-06T12:22:00.000-04:00It looks like the varmint is a Hoary Marmot (http:...It looks like the varmint is a Hoary Marmot (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoary_Marmot).
