We are experimenting with using Podcasts as a new delivery tool to supply information to park visitors. Listed below are our first test Podcasts. After you try them out, please email your impressions and suggestions. We would really like to hear what you think. Your comments will let us know if we are heading in the right direction and provide us with ideas for future content.

Video Podcasts are big and a broadband connection will most likely be needed to download them.

These files are also playable on your computer using QuickTime or iTunes.

A good friend of the park sent us some great video of a grizzly at Old Man Lake. If you look closely you can see it dig up and eat a ground squirrel.

Safari Users!
Control-click on the files and choose download linked file. A text file will be placed on your hard drive that will look something like this: "filename".mp4.txt or "filename".m4v.txt.
Rename the file, removing the .txt extension, and it will then play in either iTunes or QuickTime. Leave the .mp4 or .m4v extension.

Please let us know if the mp4 or m4v file worked better for you.
