I loved your site. Beautiful work. I watched the movie Grizzly Falls and that facinated me to look up things on Grizzly falls. I came to your site and was very pleased at what I found. I find now Grizzlys are one of my favorite animals. I've always wanted to be a wild life bio. Thanks

I am awestruct by the beauty of your work. I am continually searching for refrence photos as I am a wildlife artist my medias are pencil, colored pencil,water-colors, and pastels. My latest joy and facination has been the Grizzly bear, I am searching for a photo of a giant male in standing position. Although my work calls for refrence material it is seldom exact copies of photos as I do not like to copy others work but I am looking for refrences. Thank you for this website I am overjoyed ans excited to see such brilliant work.

I'm doing a class project. If you could hepl me and my friend, it would be great. We need to know what the cost of going to the McNeil River would be to hunt bears. What would it cost for a plane ticket from anchorage? And what kind of equpipment you would need if you were a biologist, photographer, family or just interested examp. tent, camera food, raingear. And what would the cost be? Please e-mail me back . I would have wriiten an e-mail, but my teacher wouldn't

I have a Canon EOS Rebel G, w/35-70 and a 75-300 auto focas lens. Should I purchase another lens if I am able to visit McNeil River?
