Once in a lifetime experience! We booked an 8 hour Jackson Hole Wildlife tour. Clint showed up promptly at 6AM. He was extremely friendly and courteous, he had binoculars for all of us, snacks, drinks and the van was very clean. We strapped in and were off. We didn't make it a mile before a good size herd of Elk (mom's and babies) were grazing in front of us. We swear he put them there before he picked us up.
A scenic drive and our second stop was near a river to look for Moose. We walked to a ledge overlooking the river valley. No Moose but beautiful. Clint said he'd be right back as he walked down the river. Two minutes later, he's waiving at us to follow. 30 yards in front of us is bull Moose bedded down. We could have walked by it 20 times and not seen it, I thought "dang this guy is good".
A couple more awesome photo stops, big Buck, the T.A. Moulton barn, Pronghorn that got so close we had to back away, etc. A quick stop for coffee and Clint says we got to go... Bear sighting! We passed a huge bull Elk by the road, Clint says "should I turn around for the Elk", we all say "NO, BEAR".
We made it to the bear area and after some patience and Clint's smart positioning Bear 399 appears 200 yards away on the river bank with her 4 Cubs, that's right, 4 baby Grizzly bears! Then mom goes for a swim, it was beyond epic! Who gets to see that! Now we know this dude is good.
Then stunning views from Signal Mountain, some Wildlife viewing, including Buffalo that we still can't figure out how he knew were there. Lunch in a gorgeous spot by the Snake River with Bald Eagles circling around us and trout jumping in the river. More beautiful stops, an Osprey flying overhead with a large fish, a second Moose (yep 2 Moose in one tour), and a nesting Osprey.
We've seen the Northern Lights but the Bears eclipsed that. Clint is the BEST! Bush buck is an outstanding company to book with.
