Brown bear in Silver Salmon Creek, Lake Clark National Park and Preserve, Alaska (© Danny Green/Nature Picture Library)
The season of big meals, bigger bellies, and stocking up for winter is here. In Alaska, brown bears at Lake Clark National Park and Preserve make the most of the food still available in October. They feed on fish, sedges, berries, roots, clams, and other foods to build up fat reserves. Some can weigh more than 1,000 pounds before entering their dens for hibernation. That stored fat helps them survive the winter, when they do not eat or drink.

Chattooga River in the Appalachian Mountains, North Carolina

Rivers have long played an important role in life across the United States, supporting communities, wildlife, and industry. President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act into law on October 2, 1968. It created a national system to protect rivers and river segments with outstanding scenic, recreational, geologic, fish and wildlife, historic, or cultural values. The Act preserves designated rivers in a free-flowing condition, protects their water quality, and aims to safeguard the qualities that made them worthy of designation.

Sunset from Olmsted Point, Yosemite National Park, California, USA

On October 1, 1890, Yosemite became the nation's third national park. More than a century later, it still feels like a place that operates on geological time rather than human schedules. From Olmsted Point, the overlook in today's image, that timescale is impossible to miss. The smooth granite underfoot was sculpted by glaciers, while scattered boulders known as glacial erratics were carried here by ice and abandoned when it melted.
