August 2008. This enclosure has a large central area, but the photo shows a narrow lane that is quite long and travels up to a second section that includes a den.

I'm not sure how large the exhibit actually is, and the zoo's website might contain that information, but it is long and quite spacious. The ground is uneven, there are numerous hiding opportunities, the elevation gain is noticable for the bears, and there is a cool bridge for visitors to look down upon the 3-4 bears. At each end of the $2 million, fairly new habitat is a large viewing window for closer inspection of the bears in their dens.
