Portage Glacier, Portage, Alaska

A very rare sighting of a Black Bear on Portage Glacier (the captain of the Ptarmigan -- the boat on which you travel to see the glacier -- states that he's only seen this a couple times out of about 6000 trips)!

I think I like this shot even a tad better. Like was said, it's a once-in-a-lifetime shot.
