Although my Alaska Bear Photo Tour is mostly about bears, we see lots of other animals as well including this cooperative sea otter. Lake Clark National Park, Alaska.

I’m home from my two annual back to back Alaska Bear and Puffin photo tours! The weather at times was challenging, but the photo opportunities were awesome! So much variety. We had two sows, each with a set of spring cubs. I think we saw 5 nursing sessions the first week, and 6 the second! This was from day one of week one. For those who have traveled with me before, this is Crimp.

Check out this massive ice berg in Bear Glacier Lagoon. Helicopter Mike says it is the biggest one he as seen in there and based off his helicopters altimeter estimated the height to be about 150 feet tall, and nearly as wide as a city block. Keep in mind, some 90% is underwater!

IPhone photo. Back from another great trip into Kenai Fjords, National, Park! At times, the weather was challenging, but it sure helped the waterfalls at cataract Cove! This is only half of the granite wall, it looks just like this to the right as well. Dramatic!
