Tongass National Forest
We will take a 30 minute flight over Admiralty Island to Chichagof Island. We disembark at the beach and spend 2.5-4 hours watching the bears fish out of the small river at the base of a large waterfall. When the salmon are spawning this is some of the most active bear viewing in Alaska! We can frequently see glaciers from the plane as we depart and return to the Juneau Airport.
