Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re so glad you had an incredible day and that Sam helped make the trip so memorable. Seeing a mother bear with her cubs must have been a special highlight, along with all the beautiful scenery. We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words to Sam. We hope to see you again on another Rocky Mountain adventure!
