We went searching for bears yesterday with Keith from TECKK in Hoonah/Icy Strait Point.It was a memorable experience.It was a tough day looking for bears.Beautiful weather but they weren't around.We got in the van and went from stream to stream looking for the bears and only saw some in the distance.It was getting late and we were worried about getting back to the ship on time but Keith wanted to try one more place he knew.So down another trail we went and all of a sudden there was a huge brown bear just in front of us happily eating away. We got a fantastic close up view of the bear in it's natural habitat.There are no guarantees you'll see a bear but I know that Keith at TECKK won't give up and you'll learn a lot about the Alaska during the trip.Highly recommended.
