YouTube Video Description

See how orphaned and displaced bears are cared for in a rescue center and explore a remote homestead on a deep-water fjord. You will enjoy an up-close view of the animals at the Fortress of the Bear, where brown and black bears are typically in residence. The naturalists will elaborate on why the bears were brought to the center, their personality traits and how they are ensured a fulfilling life at the rescue center. The stories are inspiring, as many of the bears were once malnourished, injured or orphaned. Living in the remote Alaska wilderness can be challenging for animals and people, as you will discover in more detail at a private homestead on Silver Bay that the McGraw Family established generations ago. While gathered around a crackling campfire, you will hear tales of the family’s life in the wilds. Silver Bay takes name from the silver that prospectors found there in the late 1800s. • Observe brown and black bears in the Fortress of the Bear rescue center. • Hear how the bears have been nurtured and brought back to health. • Visit a remote homestead on the deep-water fjord Silver Bay. • Learn about the challenges of living in the Alaska wilderness. • Dress warmly in weather-appropriate clothing. • Wear flat comfortable walking shoes.
