-Rafting down the snake river we saw a bald eagle on a tree stump about 15 feet from the water, as we got closer it took off, the wing span of those things is amazing.
- Mapleton Canyon i was walking up the side of the mountain and it was snowing, i look over to my right and about 20 yards away a bear is sliding down the hill in the snow. It saw me but kept going down the hill.
- the next week I was up Mapleton canyon again, and i am not sure if it was the same bear or not, but I walked through some trees in to this meadow and there was another bear staring at me from across the meadow, this time about 30 feet away, i slowly backed away until i was back in the trees, i watched for a few minutes as it stood there and then it took off the other way.
- two nights later me and 3 of my buddies were scouting some deer up Payson canyon, and i saw another bear this one was much further away maybe 100 yards, but it was crazy seeing 3 bears in close to two weeks.
