Bob and Rebecca Zurek are pictured on the trail in Glacier National Park earlier this month. On Aug. 2 during a hike on the Loop Trail, they were temporarily stopped by a grizzly bear that blocked a bridge on the trail. The grizzly encounter for the Zureks came almost a year to the day after a bear confrontation on a different Glacier National Park trail.
