donaldsc Posted June 27, 2021 #3 Share Posted June 27, 2021 Welcome to BearCam Although it's very early in the salmon run, it's a great time to watch the bearcams. Bears typically move in and out of the river corridor in mid June until make the salmon arrive in large numbers. Within a week or so, we might see the first big wave of fish arrive at Brooks Falls. Until then, instead of seeing bears linger at the falls to fish, keep an eye out for ephemeral sightings of bears throughout the river. The lower river cams will be a good place to watch since the lines of sight are greater. It's also the peak of the bears' mating season, so be on the lookout for courti DON 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oakman58 Posted June 29, 2021 #4 Share Posted June 29, 2021 I'm guessing it will be another week before we start seeing a lot of salmon. Yesterday the was one lone bear fishing. No salmon = no bears as you well know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTIS is huge, missing lots of teeth, and was always in a small alcove at the top of the screen, AKA "Otis' Office". I think he was the oldest bear at the falls. FWIW his office remains unoccupied this season. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few fishermen as well as the bears. Fun to watch and even more fun for the fishermen; ought to be some good catches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quack2 Posted July 23, 2021 Author #21 Share Posted July 23, 2021 I spent this past Monday and Tuesday at Brooks. Lots and lots of bears. Highlight was going wading with small group and two guides in the river near (but not too near) the bears near the Riffles Platform. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quack2 Posted July 26, 2021 Author #22 Share Posted July 26, 2021 This guy followed me down the road at Brooks Falls last Tuesday. Since we were both headed to the Falls, I followed him down the path. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must be a senior moment for the 25/26 year old veteran of Brooks Falls. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
