So, my husband and two oldest girls went scouting for a future sheep hunt in 3-32 and as always, put together a little video. They found sheepy country but no sheep on this particular occasion. They did however get way too close to a Grizzly sow and cubs as well as some awesome made-in-bc-scenery:

Great vid. Those will be two very capable adults. I have to say I love how a true outdoorsman can be turned into a bowl of jelly with the wife stare.:oops:

Excellent adventure with your girls. I haven't started taking mine on my backpacking trips(I guess I'm not a responsible adult yet) but my youngest came on a day hike with me a got another grouse for the dinner table.

As a father who's daughter hunts and lover of the alpine, that was one awesome video! Especially love the song! Was it original?
Your husband is my new hero. Next year I see a father/daughter alpine hunt for us.

Thanks for sharing!!

Wow!
Beautiful country & well filmed.
No doubt a unique family. Envy your lifestyle.
You were lucky that you didn't come between the grizz & a cub/s. My suggestion is to leave the pea shooter(243) at home when in grizz country. :-P

I think a pea shooter is better than no peashooter. However, to parrot someone else, a second firearm shared between two may be practical.
On the video, great job again Jeff. I really like the humor that your family exudes, including that of Rose. Well done.

Great video, teaching our future generations the lifestyle and appreciation of our wild country. Goes to show how having an understanding of bear behaviour probably saved lives, on both sides of the camera! Way to go, you are a fine example of how parents should be raising their children. Moosin

Great adventure - thanks for sharing!

My girls are little younger than yours (9/11) and they're hiking into the alpine with me looking for four pointers - so much fun - we're doing day trips out of the truck (camp at the trail head and hike in). Looks like I should be shopping for a couple of backpacks and spread the weight around... :)
