The presence of grizzly bears is always a good omen

Like baseball players, I’m a bit superstitious. In my case, when I see grizzly bear tracks, I know that the photography for the rest of the day will be great. Today I saw lots of fresh grizzly bear tracks in the new snow (iPhone photo above). It was a great day of shooting on the Chilkat River in Alaska. Weather was pretty nice too — sunny and cold with little wind.
