Field note:

Will report back once I've experienced this one. I booked Scott Stone for the setup alone — camping in bear country is exactly my kind of trip — and the reviews back it up.

Best sighting

Subarctic river & tundra

Brown/grizzly bears, bald eagles

Worth knowing

Scott runs bear camps where you sleep out in the field, which means more time and more encounters. Going with someone well-trained in the location is what separates a great experience (and a safe one) from an average one.
