I have four galleries of black bear pictures, taken in Yellowstone National Park, Grand Teton National Park, or Mount Rainier National Park.

I had never seen a black bear in the wild until I visited Yellowstone in July of 2004, where I would see both adults and cubs. |
|
In the fall of 2005, it was the Tetons that provided great views of adults and cubs eating berries amid fall colors. |
|
|
In the fall of 2006, it was Yellowstone that provided the best bear action, all taking place between Roosevelt and Tower. |
|
In the fall of 2008, I was pleasantly surprised to find a handful of bears in the Paradise area of Mount Rainier National Park. In particular I spent a lot of time watching one young bear with a multi-colored coat. |
