It's some goofy guy with a couple bears behind them.

This picture is at the Russian River about 2 hours south of Anchorage where salmon fishermen share the river with frequent bears. The rule is you cut your line when a bear approaches. I don't recall any incidents here. As you say, the bears are more interested in the fish than people. There were actually three bears--a mom and two yearling cubs that we were able to watch for quite some time.

Sounds like an awesome trip. Did you have to enter the lottery for the Brooks Fall trip?
