Lake Clark National Park - 1 Day Touring Crescent Lake in Search of Bears

Lake Clark National Park is a remote place in southern Alaska that not many people visit. With a goal of visiting all of the national parks, I surprised my mom with a flight tour to Lake Clark National Park. We left from Anchorage and flew over to Crescent Lake before getting ona boat and cruising the lake in search of bears. It was a stunning day on the water and one I will never forget.

The reason the water is that color is because the water is super cold glacial water. It sort of does remind you of tropical waters but those waters are blue for a totally different reason. What an amazing experience to have with your mom. Thanks for sharing it.

[@ThroughMyLens]

Yea, it is so cool to see the color from the glacial fed waters, never gets old! Thanks for watching

[@user-gc3st5kj3s]

So gorgeous. I’m sure seeing the bears never gets old. I never realized how big Lake Clark is either!

[@panoramicviolinist]

The footage of the bears is breathtaking isn't it!

[@violetbf3773]

I’m glad you surprised your mom with this beautiful experience. 🙌🏽

[@rhondaz356]

This was very mesmerizing. You bring us to so many stunning places, and ALWAYS do your homework, sharing so much with us. Plus, your own enthusiasm is contagious, Josh. 🐻 🤗👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@pamelahousley7543]

So amazing - breathtaking just seeing the video, I can’t imagine what it would be like to see in person. I with the difficult accessibility, less people messing it up, i can see what your mom said that it was more beautiful than Yosemite. God has given us so many masterpieces.

[@ThroughMyLens]

Yea, it is one of the more remote places to visit for sure. It does feel really special to have an experience like this for sure.

[@XiongBearTravel]

Beautiful footage of the bears and the scenery, Alaska and Lake Clark is truly amazing and I’m really enjoying your Alaska content! Keep up the great content! Also love how the name of the park rhymes “Lake clARK National pARK” sounds so satisfying 😊

[@ThroughMyLens]

So glad you liked the series and I never thought about the rhyme haha

[@nancyst.marie-qualls8434]

You and your family pick the best places to see. Always inspiring. Thank you for the logistic info you and your peeps add, too.

[@Richy.Boi.]

Your a great son. Best to your mum 🥰

[@prowrestlingisart6742]

Loved the video and seeing all the bears. The water is deceptive. It looks tropical but that temp is anything but!

[@ThroughMyLens]

haha that is true, I can't imagine how cold it was haha

[@slighwentwalking2024]

Holy smokes that was a lot of bears. Thanks for the amazing views mate..... I'm happy to watch from Florida.

[@ThroughMyLens]

It was pretty nuts how many bears we saw!

[@michellerichardson4200]

Another stunning National Park vlog! Loved seeing the bear stand up, can’t imagine seeing it in person; not to mention all of the other bears! What a perfect day!!!

[@rephaelrechitzky9763]

What a beautiful place. AMAYZING!! Thank you Josh. Nice to see your mother again. She has the same smile like you. Great!

[@ThroughMyLens]

Glad you enjoyed it! Yea, it was so fun to have this adventure with her

[@Mivie1499]

My favorite place in Alaska. Redoubt Lodge is great. Fishing is good and guides are wonderful.

[@Landonmoto39]

I live in Alaska and have had many amazing adventures but I’ve never been to Lake Clark and I’ve always wanted to go, and this video just made me want to go even more! Awesome!!!

[@louise3993]

Stunning views absolutely stunning. See the bears icing on the cakes. Thanks for documenting this for us Be safe 😊

[@trish5556]

Gorgeous! Nice to see you share that experience with your Mom.

[@Timmy-ey4nt]

Lake Clark is one of my best memories I visited this place 6 years ago same plane same boat and chance to see a big mommy bear with her 2 kids but unlucky all day under the rain.. I love to see your videos So beautiful and amazing Thanks for sharing 👍👏😘

[@panoramicviolinist]

I love that we can see the world like this through youtube. Incredible images 🐻‍❄🌲🏞♥

[@johanna7254]

What a beautiful spot! The water is gorgeous!

[@Karolm1964]

That scenery was STUNNING! So amazing that you were able to share it with your Mom. She's adorable. 💙

[@my09ultra]

There are no words for the beauty of Nature you got to see!

[@MsTessLJ]

Wow! That scenery alone was incredible even without the bears, who were a bonus! I'm taking notes for my next trip to Alaska. If you get the chance to visit Talkeetna again, I highly recommend the Talkeetna Air Taxi flight to Summit Denali. We did that in May and the weather was perfect enough that we were able to summit Denali as well as Mt. Hunter and Mt. Foraker. And we landed on the Kahiltna glacier. It was an amazing day!

[@xiggroc]

Crazy views and wow all the bears is so lit

[@C-TOS]

Pops and your mom are truly a power couple, he is super tall, she is super tiny.

[@airstreamer]

This is so interesting! Who would have thought there was a boat tour to watch bears?

[@KD-on9fg]

Travel with pop and now with mom? I’m jealous man, kudos

[@travelertrome8449]

Absolutely stunning. The views especially from the plane were jaw dropping, with the glacier water rivers. Wow!

[@alifathi7878]

Do you know what draws me to watching your videos and your wonderful adventurous work is, above all, your great interest in the father, mother, and members of your family, so you take them wherever you explore or go?

[@wanderlust62]

Ohhh, so awesome to finally meet Mom! Josh, everything is in the Lord's time and I am so grateful for getting intel on AK Hwy stops and the National Parks I possibly would not have known soon enough which could be accessed by plane. I can budget plan, now!

[@wendypederson243]

oh my goodness your mom is so tiny compared to your pops! So cute!

[@realalaskaliving]

Awesome! My bf calls this place his heaven on earth. I stopped in Port Alsworth only once, while on my way to Egegik. The turquoise wonder just makes you think you’re in a tropical paradise 💕

[@raphaelarea1055]

More with your Mom please and both, if possible!!! What a fantastic place to visit! Thank you so much!!!!🙏🏽🙏🏾🙏🏿🙏❣️💕💖😊

[@kellywall3656]

That was incredible! I was searching for a place to visit when I came across one of your videos. I did not know you had a second channel and of course I subscribed!

[@witelite7779]

✨💕 Absolutely breathtaking💕✨ Thanks for sharing 🙏🏿

[@coolbuffdad]

I am currently reading the journals of a man who lived in Lake Clark NP area for 30+ years. Really fascinating stuff and great to see the landscape like this up close.

[@megankeast15]

That is so incredibly beautiful!

[@maryfettig3378]

Wow what a day for your mom! Absolutely breathtaking 😊

[@Sarae89]

Beautiful!!

[@paultucker1272]

What a beautiful place!

[@ashleymb16]

I've really been enjoying all of the Alaska content so far! Alaska is high up on my bucket list. Thank you for all you do! Your videos are so helpful and informative. Your Great Smoky Mountains & Skyline Drive videos were super helpful for my husband and I when we were planning our trip to those places over the summer! Looking forward to the next adventure! 🥾🌄

[@archibaldsimms7440]

Thanks for the complement on our turquoise beach water. Yes, our beaches are beautiful in the Bahamas.

[@charleshartig3247]

Thanks! Wow. Stunning. Too cool.

[@richbrindley8944]

Josh, Totally blown away by Lake Clark. The shot of the bald eagle atop the tree was majestic.

[@marthacamacho2653]

WOW!! That was one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen. It was amazing. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING THIS BEAUTIFUL MOMENT WITH YOUR MOM. You have her smile. Your audio and video were fantastic. God Bless you and your family. Hope your Thanksgiving was great. Missed your Pop. Take care, until next time.

[@andreajohnson1796]

Awesome ! !

[@chrissanfino761]

Beautiful lake views, I think I would prefer this over katmai. But both sound fascinating. Lovely footage.

[@marianfrances4959]

Pretty awesome! 👍🇨🇦😎

[@sharonoberholzer7449]

We did a great bear viewing trip. Few from Homer over to Lake Clark National Park. Alaska is so beautiful that even pictures don't even do it justice ❤

[@natlovell122]

Wow 🤩

[@ThroughMyLens]

It was special for sure

[@mariest.george4443]

Absolutely stunning - and so lucky with the weather! When exactly in July did you go? It looks like there is still so much snow on the mountains.

[@Ondar007]

wow 😁

[@EllipticDawid25]

3:50 Yogi bear 🍀

[@susanschmid2271]

Super.

[@MegaGo68]

Wow, almost nobody goes to Lake Clark. It's stunning. One question, though: where Pops?

[@marshamelk]

Babysitting?

[@DontUputThatEvilOnMe]

I would love to be the guy who goes out fishing for the restaurant. Paid to go salmon fishing would be amazing.

[@FaisaL..11]

Welcome to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. We are waiting for you. There is a lot to explore ..❤

[@owensfolx]

Do you have an account here on KZbin, or on one of your other platforms, on how you managed the logistics of all the Alaska parks? How many days; if you did several (or not) in a single vacation, etc? Every time I start researching Alaska I get overwhelmed!

[@runningrock124]

what airline/service did you utilize? and what was the lake tour called? thank you for information - great video!

[@IMJAFO2]

Josh. Did you get to see Yogi Bear and his side kick, Boo Boo???

[@HarshitaKasera]

Can you share the link to the tour you did? Also what time of the year would you recommend for viewing bears feeding salmon?

[@Photosbyrasberry]

Could you share how you went about planning/Booking this trip? Where did you even start. I would like to go do this one. Thanks

[@ThroughMyLens]

Yea, i plan to make a video on the entire planning process at the end of the Alaska national park series

[@lyndcason7516]

You mentioned "pricey". What was the ballpark cost for you and your mom?

[@donniereiter3646]

Nah bro the water in the Bahamas will be way more clearer than that Alaskan lake lol
