Salmon eating bears excursions

[LindaKE]

Are there any good "salmon eating bear" excursions that would be good for someone with limited mobility? Most seem to require what, for me, would be a very long walk.

Walking will be necessary. Inquire directly from operators though, you may get something that is more accessable?? Look at Pack Creek out of Juneau perhaps?

Now I know that we grow our Salmon huge here but Our Bears are also huge so I haven't heard of any salmon eating any bears seriously though it would help knowing your itinerary.

Yeah. If the salmon can eat the bear, you won't catch me anywhere around!

 

We'll be going to Ketchikan, Juneau, Skagway and Sitka, southbound Anchorage (Seward) to Vancouver. If I'm not going to be able to see the bears catching and eating the salmon, then we might as well save money and go earlier in the season.

 

Budget Queen, do you know where I can find info about Pack Creek? I just checked out Juneau's web site, but didn't see Pack Creek mentioned.

A couple more questions please when are you looking at cruising and how long from when you land in Alaska to when you get on the ship? If you can afford extra time and money you might check with Katmai Wilderness Lodge and see what they can do. The bears up here are worth seeing and these are brown bears of up to 860 lbs. They guarantee that thier guests will see bears from mid-May to the end of September. As for your mobility problem they can answer you on that.

BTW, here is the link for Pack Creek

Thanks Chippsetter. I've sent an e-mail to them asking about accesibility to people with limited mobility. I'm guessing that I would have trouble at both places though.
