We parked next to the tundra buggy lodge, and watched as a lone bear wandered toward us. After a few minutes, he decided to take a nap about fifteen feet from our buggy. It was amazing that he was not bothered by our conversation, clicking cameras, open windows or that we were preparing and eating lunch. He seemed not to have a care in the world, and about forty-five minutes later, the engine started up and we drove off. The bear remained in his comfy bed of snow and willow.
