During their various stops, they encounter many wild animals, including cougars, bears and Rocky Mountain goats. As family members film the vacation, they take pictures of native animals such as caribou, deer, whales and moose. Edna and Frank shoot two large bears, and Edna kills two large cougars using bow and arrow.
