Grizzly 399 appears to smile as she glances over her shoulder to watch her cubs while relaxing in the wildflower fields of her home territory of Pilgrim Creek. The life of a grizzly bear in the summer is often fast paced as the pressure is on to accumulate enough fat reserves before the snow flies again, but 399 always accomplished the task with seeming ease. Perhaps having successfully raised many cubs before, she allowed herself to take a moment to sit back and enjoy the beauty of spring, trusting in her tested skills of motherhood.
