Grizzly Bear 399
Queen of the Tetons
Grand Teton National Park
Sadness overcame me when I read the news that day. Our beloved Queen of the Tetons was tragically taken away. Word followed that there was a swerve. A Spirit saved, a Spirit risen. The greatest Mama Bear of all-time would have done anything for her cubs during her time on earth all the way to the end. A candle-light vigil and ashes to Pilgrim. Grizzly Bear 399 is Legendary. Please Rest in Peace. We will miss you and never forget.
Grizzly 399 Tribute
I honor and cherish Grizzly Bear 399 and her cubs with my Tribute. I followed 399 for several years and was amazed how she would love and care for her cubs. Please read my Tribute to the Queen of the Tetons above.
A portion of the proceeds from Grizzly 399 sales will be used to donate metal prints to auctions and benefits for groups like Kiwanis of Belgrade, Hope and the Holidays (toys for kids and holiday food baskets whose families can't afford them), Eagle Mount (Bozeman), school auctions (Belgrade School and Billings Central HS Mayfair Auction), Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation (Gallatin Valley) and The MT Media Coalition. My donations in this past year outpaced my 399 sales. Photography is not a full-time job for me, more of a passion thing and a way I can give back and support my local community.
I want to honor and pay Tribute to Grizzly Bear 399. I loved the example she set. She taught us how loving and caring a Grizzly Bear can be and in doing so she taught us to be better humans. Spread the love, not the hate.
