Jewel of the West: Photographing the Grizzlies of Great Bear Rainforest

By Geoff Allen, Our Canada

Why You Should Go to Great Bear Rainforest

When we finished lunch, we reloaded our skiff and went out for an afternoon viewing. Fortunately for us, we were able to see Lenore—the matriarch of the Glendale Cove grizzlies. The huge sow was napping at the head of the river’s inlet at low tide, waiting patiently for the salmon to start running. What was truly amazing was that the water level was so low; Jackie jumped out of the skiff and manually pushed us into a more optimum spot for viewing the big, snoozing bear. Unfortunately, the salmon weren’t running yet and after about an hour of lying around, she woke up, had a drink from the river and wandered off towards the forest. (These photos prove why British Columbia is one of the world’s most beautiful places.)...http://www.readersdigest.ca/travel/canada/great-bear-rainforest/4/
