Day-by-Day Itinerary
 |
Day 17:30 AM pickup at your Anchorage hotel, followed by an incredibly scenic 135 mile trip to Great Alaska. Following orientation and lunch, it’s onto the plane for a 50 minute bush flight to Bearcamp. Spend the day with the royalty of Alaskan wildlife. Overnight in double occupancy weather-port tent/cabins. |
 |
Day 2Wake on your own schedule to hot coffee and spectacular wilderness. Watch the big bruins with their cubs in a stunning backdrop of glacial peaks. Return flight (+/- 50 minutes) to main lodge generally between 2:00 - 4:30. Settle into riverfront rooms then enjoy happy hour and dinner. |
 |
Day 3Fishing! A day of River Salmon fishing with your guide. Either the Kenai or Kasilof to target King, Silver, Sockeye or Pink salmon, depending upon season. (Check our seasonal chart) You guide will travel the river searching for the hot spot for the day. Eagles, Moose, Caribou, brown and Black bear occasionally view from the shore as we float by. |
 |
Day 4Today you'll leave the rods at camp enjoy Alaska's top single day cruise..in spectacular Kenai Fjords National Park. Orca, Gray whales, Humpbacks, Sea Otter, Puffin and a myriad of sea birds call this amazing fjord home during the summer, with thousands of other species as well. (Hard core fishermen may choose a day of halibut fishing offshore on this day rather than the cruise. |
 |
Day 5Salmon fishing in a power boat. Two to four anglers per boat will drift, plug, or cast for the world’s largest Kings, Silvers, Sockeye and Pinks. (Five Day Trips depart the lodge at 2:30pm). You may choose to hike to a waterfall with leaping salmon or kayak a meandering Wildlife Refuge stream. |
 |
Day 6Fly-out fishing adds another dimension to the Alaska experience and often can provide a special angling experience. We will choose hot spots for the peak of a Salmon run on each day’s adventure. Typically fly-outs allow for a little extra morning sleep prior to departure and get you back in time for happy hour. |
 |
Day 7Your final day..choose from a wonderful hike to a waterfall to view leaping salmon, or target one last day of salmon or trout fishing on the river. Return to the lodge at noon and check out at 2:30. Return to Anchorage via Commuter flight or Floatplane direct from the lodge (air transfers not included). |
