In fall he turns brown, but his ears remain blonde. 820's most notable feature is his large head and double chin.

| Bear #911 “Split-Nose” Mike Fitz described 911 as an adult male with short, light brown fur, bald shed patches, and a pit bull-like face in 2018. Based on his size and scars alone we can accurately assume that he’s a mature adult, one who has survived many years of competition with other bears. Upon close inspection of his face, rangers noticed this bear has peculiar looking nostrils. The nostrils appear to have been injured and healed. 911 often has multiple facial scars. 911 prefers to fish the lip of the falls and is very proficient. He stands sideways on the lip and plants his right rear foot on a flat area. This makes his foot appear to curve upward. 911 will also fish right below the falls a bit back from the jacuzzi, often in a sitting position. | |
| Bear #912 (39’s 2016 male offspring) 912 has a long, narrow, slightly roman muzzle, long oval ears, and copper colored head. His side profile is almost anvil-shaped. He starts the season medium brown and is almost black by fall with just a hint of blonde on top of his head. He also has white tipped ears. His long muzzle, neck, and legs give him the look of a thoroughbred. 912 is a serious angler who, like his brothers, fishes the lip, but prefers the J. He will happily share his scraps with others particularly his brother, 99 | |

By August he has darkened into a light brown and has a light cinch mark on his side. 913 has a broad forehead and large round ears. Like his brother, 912, he has a long, narrow slightly Roman muzzle. His, however, is more Roman and turns up slightly at the end. 913 usually takes a while to fully shed, looking very fluffy with irregular patches of shed fur in the early summer While all three of 39's boys fish the lip, 913 is probably the most dedicated. But he can also be found fishing the riffles and socializing on the lower river | |
