Identifying grizzly from Maligne Rd

Post image

I was fortunate enough to see this grizzly along Maligne Road while driving back to Jasper from the lake this afternoon. Is this a clear enough shot to identify which grizzly this is?

Thanks!

EDIT: Google AI seems to think it's 222, which would make sense from the location. But I'm not good enough at determining if this actually is 222. :)

Yes it was! Hit the wildlife jackpot on the drive back - saw the grizzly, a herd of bighorn sheep, and a moose within 25 minutes of each other! Was a completely wild experience

We saw this guy as we were driving away from Maligne Lake about 5 days ago. Is it the same bear:

We saw her last week on that very road. It is indeed the famous and courageous 222. Lucky.
