Big Horn Mountain Range

              Near the top of the pass in about 5 feet of snow we noticed some tracks.  Earlier we saw some but there were pole marks next to each foot print.

As you can see, there are no pole marks and we believe we see claw marks at the top of each footprint. Now a cougar would not show claw marks because they are retracted...but a bear would show the claws.

My little babies can lick any dead coyote...no really, they can l.i.c.k. any dead coyote! ha ha

This porcupine didn't make it any further than the poor coyote did.
