Close Call With Alaska Grizzly Stuns Photographer
A photographer near Camp McCumber Alaska tells how a near miss with a massive grizzly ended without a kill. The team moved quietly from Camp Holmes toward McCumber Creek and spotted the bear half a mile away. At 50 feet Jack Lamb filmed the bear as it fed, then bolted down a 30 percent slope. The narrator fired twice, missing both times, as the animal vanished into willows. The crew, five men plus a dog, debated the missed shot and the danger of the encounter.
