 So do I, Hélène! Those little cubs are  ever sooo cute , thanks for sharing.

That must have been such a treat to watch!  I love your series!

How about some Kung Fu black bear cubs while we are still waiting for the cam to get up. We watched these little cuties in Yellowstone.

ANY bear photos are appreciated but bear cubs doing Kung Fu...priceless!  Thank you!

Bearina...waiting to hear about your experiences...very exciting!

Aww how cute Helene...kungfu bears..

Patiently waiting....

Bear, LOVE those Kong Fu Grizllies!!! LOL Too cute for words! Thanks for sharing these great photos.

Hi Sylvia, it's great to be back, I'm ready to go. I'm on vacaton but I'm leaving for the cottage in mid august so I hope to be able to see some bears before I leave.

 Bear, that's ever so cute ! Thank you for those gorgeous photos!

It's great to see you back. Are you ready for posting pics? I am...

Cheers!

Hi everybody, lets hope the bear cam from Brooks falls goes live soon. In the mean time here's a little story...

After hearing about the movie KungFu Panda and not be outdone by their Giant Panda cousins, these bear cubs give a demonstration of their own KungFu skills. The original KungFu Grizzlies.

When asked if he was a black belt, the cubbie responded by saying that he doesn't need a belt, bear's don't wear pants !

First photo by Ron Niebrugge and the 2 other photo's by Lynn Rogers which I believe were taken near Brooks falls.

 Gin, welcome to our forum!

Keith, famous last words... it's ever so hard to be patient...but we've gone through it before...  Waiting will pay off in the end, I've read about that second ( later) salmon run, too. Fortunately the cam will be online by then.

There will be bears!!!

Gin - welcome!  It is always good to hear from new folks.  We may still get a late viewing this season - it's possible.  BAGs have a mixed result with being p......... (aka, patient).  In the end, we all manage to pull it off, but sometimes we get grouchy without our bear fix.  Hope you hang with us. 

BAGs:  It is so hard to stay p........., but I am trying very hard. 

EBear: Thanks for updating us in the other thread about the team having to wait a while for the bears to calm and clear out a little before they get down in and start installing the equipment safely.  We sure don't need any bears or people getting hurt.

Hi Gin, This is it...you are at the correct forum and we are all keeping our grizzly claws crossed that the camera will be up towards the end of the month.  Welcome!

I would like to be in the right forum, chat when the cameras are up. Are there more than one.

Which is the best...any help is so appreciated.

thank you

gin...

 Lucky Bearina! It must be so exciting to see all the wonderful bears live!

Looking forward to her photos and stories, too.

Thanks Karen!

Wow! That is so cool! A bear viewing trip with Chris and Ken is an unforgettable experience. I didn't know she was going to Alaska. Looking forward to her stories and photos. Thanks for letting us know Karen.

 WoooHooo...what an exciting day this is for BAG Bearina: she's in Alaska and is flying with Ken & Chris (Emerald Air) to see lots of bears today!  I can't wait to hear about her trip and see her photos. 

 Karen and Sylvia, thanks for the birthday wishes. I had a wonderful day!

Happy Bearthday, Hélène!
