Wildlife on the Middle Fork

We were very lucky to see much of the best wildlife that the Middle Fork has to offer on our trip, including a bear, snakes, bighorn sheep, mink, river otters, Bald Eagles, Osprey, Chukars, spruce and Blue Grouse, many songbirds, waterfowl, snake river cutthroat trout and steelhead trout. Some of them were patient enough to stand still for pictures- enjoy!

That squeaking noise was just me trying to get you to peek out of the rocks. (Gottcha!)
