We had the time of our lives today on the Coastal Brown Bear adventure. Our family flew in their two small planes to Katmai National Park for a wonderful day in thr gorgeous wild landscape with many bears, including mommas and cubs. Tim and Ty are not only excellent pilots, they were wonderful guides with so much knowledge about the bears, other wildlife and the landscape. McKenna handled all the arrangements for the group and prepared us to fly. She had a nice surprise snack ready for us when we returned. She was amazing. The flight took us through the breathtaking landscape. The flight alone was worth the trip. We loved the experience with the bears. We learned so much!
