Bear Viewing is just as synonymous with Alaska
as Fishing is. These photos were taken at Wolverine Creek. The only
way to get there is to take a scenic 30 minute flight over Cook
Inlet. Via float equipped aircraft like the Dehavalland Beaver and
Otters used by the local Air Charter services in Kenai and Soldotna.
Landing on Big River Lakes and hopping in a boat you will be very
close to these fishing bears. Wolverine Creek boasts both black
and brown bears cohabitating and trying to share the numerous
sockeye salmon. This is also a wonderful spot to fish. The
pristine Alaska mountain range juts up directly behind the lake.
This is truly an Alaskan experience. Ask us for more details.
Things to look for while flying to Big River Lakes:
You may see the majestic Alaska Range, which includes Mt. Redoubt, Mt.
Spur and Mt. Iliamna. All of which are active volcanoes. On clear days
you may even see Mt Denali and Mt. Foraker. Once you reach
the flats look for bears in the tall grass, and just before you land
you may see moose. These are great sights from the air.
You may also see seals sunning themselves at low
tide.
