Jersey Joe - Thanks for the information. Boy, that is quite the rack for sure - and like ABM said here' s hoping the fellow that shot it is OK following his seizure. A guy would want to be around for a lonjg time to revel in that trophy!

ABM - Nice griz pic! Looks to be in great condition - he' s probably one of the North Slope musk ox killers that they were talking about on the Alaska News TV program tonight. I may have gotten in wrong, but I believe they stated that the bears have accounted for 13% of the musk ox kills in the past year - and that they seem to be getting better at it - even just killing them for the hell of it and not eating them. A new form of " blood sport" , I guess? Anyway, nice shot - how much of a telephoto lens magnification are you using?
