Hi Kiwi,

I had them high on my wish-list, too.
I had heard there were bears around, in fact we were warned by staff at the mountain resort.

I was not prepared with a camera at that moment, unfortunately.
I had just taken a short trip off the mountain and into town and back up on the mountain -- and was meeting friends at our condo. None of my friends saw the bear, as they were all on the back deck of the condo, which was on the opposite side of the building.

The Presence of the bear was incredible, even before I could see it.
The energy of the bear was very dense and deeply grounded.
I'll never forget the feeling of the Presence of the bear as it passed by me.

It was a little too close, in fact. I was lucky it was headed for the dumpster. Lol.

I hope all is well with you, Kiwi!
