Fishing

Brooks Falls is a waterfall located within Katmai National Park and Preserve in Alaska. It is famous for watching salmon leap over the 6-foot falls to get to their Brooks Lake spawning grounds. This particular bear was so entertaining to watch while he fished. The bears here are most active during daylight hours. During peak season, especially July, once the salmon run begins, the Brooks Falls viewing platform can be crowded. Photo © copyright by Debbie McCulliss.
