Anan Bear Photo Tour

Anan Creek Bear Observatory, Tongass National Forest, Alaska.

A recent cancelation just opened a single spot on my Anan Bear Photo Tour out of Wrangell, Alaska.

This trip involves much more than the Anan bears, although we will spend two full days at this beautiful rainforest bear viewing destination. Here we will see bears catching salmon after salmon and lots of other great behaviours! Most of the bears are black bears, most years we also have brown bears along with the black bears. The place is also loaded with eagles.

In addition, we will take a trip up the Stikine River for some amazing scenery, along with another trip to the La Conte Glacier, maybe the most active tidewater glacier in Alaska.

Except for breakfast, this is an all-inclusive trip including a waterfront hotel, all excursions and even a couple of feasts at our host’s home.

This is also my most affordable trip. The six day 5 night trip is $4,660. Add $1,000 for single travelers who will have their own room. For more information, visit: Anan Alaska Bear Photo Tour.

Picacho Peak

Picacho Peak State Park, Arizona.

Another recent photo from Picacho Peak State Park in Arizona. We drove by the area on Sunday and traffic was backed up onto the off-ramp! Definitely want to avoid the weekends here. It is nice to go early, however the poppies don’t open until mid morning so early isn’t always helpful.

This morning I couldn’t decide if I should be photographing the amazing snowy landscape, or the wildlife – I ran around doing both!
