Thanks for your two wonderful videos about viewing brown bears in Alaska. In your Brooks Falls one, you mentioned not getting many subscribers. I think your best bet for getting more is to have more content. I’d love to see more videos about seeing animals in the lower 48, where accessing the areas is more affordable. For instance, Kootenai National Wildlife Refuge in northern Idaho or the Charles M Russell National Wildlife Refuge in Montana, where it’s possible to see hundreds of elk in the fall. Thanks for taking the time to make beautiful videos.

@@elnorac Wonderful advice, thank you. That’s the plan anyway, more videos. Of course I have to manage a full time job and get the budget to go to these places so it’s taking a bit longer than I hope. Regardless, I will make it happen. Working on a burrowing owl video, coping with a loss of a pet video, Ketchikan Alaska video and an Elk Refuge video. The thing about living your dreams is it takes a while, but I will keep on keeepin on :)!

The water taxi is less reliable than the float planes. The planes have an alternate landing on East wind days. Most float plane companies will also refund your ticket due to cancellations, whereas, the water taxi will not refund and does not have an alternative route.

Hi! Great video! I'm in it too coming out of the food cache in the campground :) The only thing I would add is that the Water Taxi can be very unreliable especially during high winds. I've been to Brooks Camp the past 4 years (including this one) as a camper and there are always cancellations posted by the water taxi. It works for some and it's a great experience, but their cancellation and NO REFUNDS policy has put a few people into tight spots more than once.

As someone that lives here in Alaska for over thirty two years now and I also do photography that is one place I plan on going next year but there are so many places here in Alaska that you can drive to and get pictures of bears without having to fly out to them and that is just one of the reasoned I love living here in Alaska plus’s being able to do photography of the northern lights and all of the other wildlife
