I spent most of last week on a Montana ranch. The proper adjective "Montana" before the word ranch in this case also meant the typical cow-wrangling included a panoramic view of the spectacular Rocky Mountain Front and the best ecosystem for GRIZZLY BEARS in the lower 48.
The week was a constant corporeal experience between my eyes widening to capture the great view and my stomach clenching in fear of a grizzly bear joining me in my 1/2 mile walk back to the cabin at dusk.
We would go on 'grizzly bear viewing' hikes, as well, and I was glad we only saw moose.

After driving dozens of miles on a lonely Montana dirt road touring conservation land - we saw one other driver that day - Mr. Late Night himself, waving as he passed by.
David Letterman's property, photo below. He has a conservation easement to help protect this landscape for the grizzly bears.
