Experience one of Prince of Wales Island's premier bear-viewing spots on this you-drive Jeep® adventure led by a knowledgeable guide.
From July to September, black bears and bald eagles gather at Dog Salmon Fish Pass to feast on spawning pink and chum salmon. Located at the outlet of Dog Salmon Creek, this natural chokepoint offers exceptional wildlife viewing from elevated platforms maintained by the Forest Service. From a scenic vantage point, watch bears fish, eagles soar, and salmon leap up the fish ladder.
Scenic stops along the drive showcase the island's varied landscapes and allow you to switch drivers.
