Great Shots. More "action" than my recent trip to the Hallo Bay bears. How does one get to McNeil River?

Access is granted by permit lottery. It takes a floatplane from homer to get there. You camp out. Bring your own food. Each day one of us takes a group of 10 or fewer visitors into the sanctuary. I've been a bear viewing guide for 15 years in Alaska and couldn't have dreamed this place up in my wildest dreams.
Well worth the extra effort to get there. Let me know if you have questions.

Great shots, Drew. Making me want to come back up there. Maybe next year.

All I want is just a little more than I'll ever have.
