2008 Sample Itinerary--This itinerary is not exact just a typical example of some of the opportunities that are available and past trips that we have done as weather and bear availability in different areas dictate the final schedule.
Day 1-Sun- Courtesy van pick up in king
salmon at airport or hotel around noon,
a
20 minute van ride to the vessel boarding area near Lake Camp. 1-2
pm anchors up and the trip starts with a breathtaking cruise
across Naknek lake from the mouth of the Naknek River to the heart of
Katmai Park to our safari camp while enjoying a delicious
lunch and an orientation with your guide before heading off
to get settled into your camp. This will introduce you to Katmai
National Park. You'll get a better feel for how wild and free Katmai is
as we cruise by volcanoes, glaciers,
rivers and untouched valleys and look for wildlife along
the shore during the 4 hour trip. Local Photography opportunities
of Eagles, Bears and lake and Mountain Scenery.
Day 2- Mon -Spend the day at Brooks River Falls
photographing Brown bears
catching
salmon at the falls. There is no better place on Earth to watch bears
interact with one another as they fight for fish and
teach their cubs to survive. Watch safely from a raised platforms.
Day 3-Tues- We'll get away from the crowds
and Photograph and view bears in a much more intimate setting at another
small near bye creek . If you are interested in fishing with the bears,
this is a great opportunity!
Day 4-Wed- The Valley of 10,000 Smokes
is not to be missed. We'll board a
van
on the only road in all of Katmai National Park. After a scenic 23 mile
drive, we'll explore a landscape of deep gorges and accumulated
ash- you'll feel like you've stepped onto the moon. For
those die hard bear viewers or fisherman- the option is available to stay
at Brooks River this day. .
Day 5-Thurs-Our 5 day guests will leave
via bush plane around 9am after
breakfast
from brooks. The guests here for an entire week will have the option to
visit brooks again for more Bear viewing from the platforms or hike back
