Great visit to the park! I suspect the griz and mostly-grown cub you saw were "Raspberry" and her cub "Snow" They've been entertaining people around the Lake Butte area, usually in the deadwood far below the overlook, for several seasons now. Everyone has been expecting them to part ways since this is Snow's third summer; it's interesting to hear they're still together. Evidently Snow is still nursing, what one observer called "an unhealthy parent-child relationship" haha.
I've been lucky to see them a couple of times, but never got a very good shot. This was from last October. Beautiful bears, regardless of their prolonged relationship!
