LEE CREEK, MT Today we saw blowdowns, burn areas, mud, streams, mountains, bear … Yes, we saw a grizzly! It was about 100 yards ahead ambling up a slope, across our trail, and up the hill. It was a big one. We took several minutes before our next step. Most of the hike was in forest, but at the end we climbed high and had great views all around. We camped at Lee Creek and have a little climb tomorrow followed by mostly flat. I am hoping for no blowdowns or mud, but another non-threatening wildlife sighting would be great.
