This morning we will depart from Bella Coola and head to Tweedsmuir Provincial Park. The park is home to several glaciers, lakes and rivers where we will have an exciting bear-watching rafting experience. Float quietly along the winding trails of the Atnaco River and observe bears foraging and caring for their cubs in their natural environment. We can not only track the tracks of black bears and brown bears, but also see the very rare white spirit bears. Starting in late August, thousands of salmon come to local rivers to spawn - the final stage of their life cycle. For bears, salmon is an easy meal. Many bears and other wildlife gather on the river to feast before the long winter. Glide past the foraging bears, stop at the uninhabited riverbanks, observe their behavior up close, and take a wonderful ecological walk with the bears. Overnight in Williams Lake.
