@@waterst9 Glad you can make it back! I bet it was different back then , but at least the bears are the same :).

No bears can't walk on water but they are strong swimmers.

The water taxi is less reliable than the float planes. The planes have an alternate landing on East wind days. Most float plane companies will also refund your ticket due to cancellations, whereas, the water taxi will not refund and does not have an alternative route.

Agreed. Learning more and more about the water taxi. If anyone is reading these comments, recommendation is to go with the float planes! Description has been updated.

Hi! Great video! I'm in it too coming out of the food cache in the campground :) The only thing I would add is that the Water Taxi can be very unreliable especially during high winds. I've been to Brooks Camp the past 4 years (including this one) as a camper and there are always cancellations posted by the water taxi. It works for some and it's a great experience, but their cancellation and NO REFUNDS policy has put a few people into tight spots more than once.

As someone that lives here in Alaska for over thirty two years now and I also do photography that is one place I plan on going next year but there are so many places here in Alaska that you can drive to and get pictures of bears without having to fly out to them and that is just one of the reasoned I love living here in Alaska plus’s being able to do photography of the northern lights and all of the other wildlife

Your video is the first that I’ve heard mention of a trail going down to the river. I’ve only heard of platform viewing at Brooks Falls and I would much prefer eye level views for photography. I’m going to have to research this more. Thanks for posting this.

Great video. I was lucky enough to camp at Katmai in September 2020. Chose September to avoid the mosquitos and see beautiful fat bears. I did take the water taxi instead of flying in with my group, but I ended up flying out with my group because the water taxi was cancelled but the flight wasn't.

Although I have climbed the Grand and Teewinot and explored all around Yellowstone, I did so before I discovered photography. If only I knew then what I know now, but that gives me even more reason to go back.

Wonderful! It sure was nice meeting you and family while there. If you send me your email I can send some raw footage of you and the boys fishing (not color graded yet). I didn't include them in the vid because of under age rules with KZfaq. Rather then responding with email on this public forum, feel free to contact me through facebook Let's Go Find Some Animals and I'll send over some footage.
