This guided forest walk will examine signs of bears and general ecology of the area. You'll embark on one more bear viewing adventure this afternoon before returning for dinner at the lodge.
As bears are most active in the morning and evening it is important to maximize your changes of wildlife spotting by heading out early. You'll enjoy a guided morning viewing again today and then this afternoon may be opportunity to take a cruise to explore the glacier-carved inlet or relax at the lodge.
On your final day at the lodge you'll be treated to one more viewing excursion and take your scheduled flight back to Port Hardy arriving late afternoon.
