Can almost feel the breeze blowing thru the trees, heavenly. The walkway is perfect. Wish I could like a thousand times.

[@wanya_telborn]

Breeze ????

[@larryzuiker5721]

One of the smoothest trails I have ever seen. Great to be able to hike without having to look down with each step.

[@theck672]

Thank you for this beautiful experience… thank you for the livecams and all the education & outreach…it really means a lot in my life. 🐻❤️🐟

[@tongeeb46]

Thank you. It was a beautiful walk on the trail. I alway wondered what it look like. The video gave me the feeling I was there. Thank you

[@juicyfrootee]

I went in blind looking for something peaceful and did not expect that long walkway through the trees. I would love to see that in person!

[@SayItToMyFace1776]

Oh, this really adds SO much to the virtual Katmai bear viewing experience. Thank you for creating this! P.S. I muted it partway through and wish it was just the sound of footsteps, birds & natural sounds.

[@oh2sail]

Thanks for this. But I much would have preferred crunching footsteps instead of orchestral music.

[@joannabruns529]

I had no idea this walk up to the falls was so magnificent. I believe at the end of trail laying eyes on the falls after watching so often on utube I would fall down and just cry ……I’m speechless

[@wendyhood1006]

Fabulous walk through I wish there was no music tho just the sounds of the birds and water would of been lovely ☺️ but thank you anyway

[@rogertemple7193]

It is very beautiful and magnificent with awesome scenery and countryside all around you there, this is really a wonderful place to explore and thank you for showing Brooks Falls.🌳🇺🇲🌲

[@HachikoTanuki]

So nice thank you for sharing. If that would be possible, I'd enjoy a version where the music is lower or not present at all.

[@ladybird6239]

Fantastic tour of the trail ! This gave me a better perspective of the area where so many of the bears we have become to know and love as they make their way to BF. Many thanks to Brian Byrd for taking us along this .6 mile trek and everyone involved in making this wonderful video.

[@AmyEmmett-Rardin]

I've been watching the cams for 4 years and am so glad to see this! Thank you!!🐻💓

[@janephillips6604]

Beautiful and so calming. Would be a great experience to see. Thank you! Love the bear cams.❤

[@Jas-sq5er]

My favorite channel the trail is beautiful it's also very Zen Thank you for bringing this to us all

[@KARenEjx]

Oh wow, lovely walk and when the falls come into view, really stunning. Thank you for the walk. ❤️

This is fantastic! Thanks for the tour, Brian. It felt like I was walking right beside you. Hopefully I’ll get to Brooks Falls one day.

[@dawnneal7283]

Thanks for this tour.

[@BigDogChannel]

This is perfect. Just what my wife and I needed to see. We will be there in just a few weeks. Can't wait to see it in person.

[@sonya2852]

Thank you for adding this beautiful footage. Hope to walk this trail someday!

[@nancykennedy2222]

I visited Brook Falls about 20 years ago - highly recommended, really a trip of a lifetime. I remember a fully forested path, more like you see around time stamp 8:30. But 20 years is a long time, and there was either a storm or logging that came through. We were there for a few days in July and didn't see any bears on the trail, only at the two ends of the trail. We also took the 10,000 Smokes day trip. Pretty excellent learning experience.

[@MrsBowzr86]

I'm glad to see some trees have been cleared from the path so theres better visibiltiy. It was hard to see beyond the path when we were there in 2021. So exhilirating to walk that trail.

[@user-qc7hr4my7r]

Appreciate all the videos and live cameras there. Love Alaska and plan to visit Katmai in a year or 2.

[@girlboss7807]

💫🌠🐻🧸🧸🏞🏕 Thank you for sharing. 🥰 A dream come true.

[@IzzyMariel]

What a great idea to film this trail for us. I'd love to go some day. I hate that the spruce beetles are taking out so many trees. Was it once a dense forest there?

[@susancristan3179]

Thank you so much! Gives me a better perspective of what it all looks like. Such a beautiful trail, and great platforms for viewing!

[@naomic9070]

I’ll probably never get to see this in person so thank you! It is beautiful!

[@kathleensobansky6343]

So beautiful, and so good for the soul. Thank you for sharing this with us!

[@lemondropkid6175]

It would be awesome to use this as VR for people in hospitals, such a beautiful walk.

[@cat.nova74]

Thank you so much! I've always wondered what it looked like.

[@arleneberman3059]

Wonderful, thank you.

[@kayawe4166]

Lovely, thank you! 😍

[@bennajoy6366]

Thank you for the beautiful walk! I have a better idea of it all now when I watch the live cams. Someday, I'd love to visit!

[@Londonechoes]

This looks Beautiful! Thank you for sharing

[@mariedube1931]

Un grand Merci pour cette merveilleuse balade, j avais l impression d etre la avec toi...Ca m as fait du bien , vraiement beaucoup. Je ne peux plus me deplacer auj. alors encore une fois Merci...

[@marmie53]

Absolutely stunning! Thank you!

[@Jan-kw7cz]

Wonderful

[@shannanbegley8189]

Thank you! Hope to walk this one day🐻

[@simonharris4488]

Thank you so much for this! That was wonderful. Truly.

[@bettyandthebeakers]

Love this but next time allow only natural sound. The overlaying of "musak" is distracting form the real abundance of natural sound with birds foot steps bugs rustling trees . Nature is its own star.

[@711joseph]

the video makes me feel like i am walking on the trail right now

[@jasonblackman]

Thanks for making this and see you next week!!

[@sacredstonecards9051]

Wow, so beautiful ❤

[@douglashurd8652]

Wow , hot trail walk ❤

[@Greatlakesgirljp]

Absolutely a amazing experience all the bears are beautiful and the scenery is spectacular ❤❤❤❤

[@larryboboutdoors]

Have walked that trail several times,we made one trip there, and it was so awesome we came back and did it again. My question is, why did they cutdown so many trees on the trail? The trail was pretty dense on the trail, maybe for saftey reasons?

[@marycarrick3828]

Beautiful

[@larryzuiker5721]

They have done a great job clearing trees along the trail so hikers have a good view ahead for any bears.

[@boblove6865]

This is why total recall of off leash dogs is important. The way she described the beginning of the attack it sounds like she may have been able to back away if not for the dog chasing the bears

[@gingerwoo5589]

Looks breezy...I would be nervous, but SO beautiful. I'm good now! On the bridge, just breath taking in more ways than one..wheww...lol Thank you...

[@marymcmanus]

Brings back my memories of 26 years ago

[@elizabethcline1526]

Thanks! 😊

[@h-lorolltide92]

the music reminds me of JUMP! by Van Halen. I'm expecting David Lee Roth to jump out at any time more than a bear. Being serious, I enjoyed this walk to the falls. Thanks!

[@irishmary7159]

Absolutely beautiful! Thanks for showing both viewing platforms to,us. I think I agree with Naomi Boak, you can see more at the BFL area🥰

[@JodyLSumrall]

I had to hit the Mute button; the music was irritating to me. Perhaps the natural sounds of the walk, which is wonderful being there video.

[@Traivor1]

I was there last August. Am I misremembering, or has there been quite a lot of tree loss just since then?

[@Coldnose99]

This video did it. I'm going next July.

[@kimsparks5811]

Ty so much. Now I have a training video. Gotta move quicker to keep up!😂

[@MurrayPeeps]

I’ve always wondered what this was like! I’m afraid I’d want the whole trail covered with reinforced bullet proof glass to feel a little safer around those massive bears.

[@lorrem2539]

Very nice trail. Would have been nice to hear the nature sounds, not that weird music.

[@user-ij2ze2jh9w]

BEAUTIFUL! Can't imagine meeting a bear on the trail!!

[@steff6816]

Are you more likely to encounter a Bear when walking to the falls than not encountering one. Just looks so clean and fresh.🙂

[@entercreativename]

That definitely is the second best office in the world, the first being Otis'!

[@LisaCarso]

Gosh no one else is there! How come?

[@user-qc7hr4my7r]

Could be early morning. It gets bright early in Alaska right now.

[@ExploreLiveNatureCams]

This was filmed early in the season when few visitors were there

[@hu_b]

@@ExploreLiveNatureCams What is the reason for the tree removal along the trail?

[@lindatohara6438]

Be there soon

[@galaxy_mosaic3587]

every shaded lump to the side of the trail appears as though it may be a bear to me. it seems like it would be a very calm walk if not for my imagination. are bears unable to access the bridged pathways? I can see where the gates that have metal netting and a handle that you need to use a thumb to manipulate would be a barrier. but would bears be able to climb over the first gate which is more adult waist level? having the ability to be that up close to the falls must be really amazing. it kind of feels like a mecca for bear watching (seeing them fish and also seeing the bear interactions)

[@theck672]

The music is nice… I couldn’t find the info about it…would love to know… thank you 🙏

[@sacredstonecards9051]

That's a long time to walk in bear country. 😊

[@danuta2214]

why are there so many trees cut down?

[@martinyuhas929]

Too crowded

[@hypeandjive]

Not a single person there. No wonder I hear that park sucks

[@elizabethcline1526]

Thanks! 😊
