CRESCENT LAKE WEST
Crescent Lake West is a must see destination and you do not want to leave Alaska without visiting. Crescent Lake is nestled in between magnificent mountains in Lake Clark National Park. On this 6 hour trip you will take a 45 minute flight to the south west side of cook inlet. On this trip you will be with your experienced guide for about 4.5 hours while bear viewing and enjoying the untouched land scape. Crescent Lake is the premiere location to view bears during the months of July, August and September. Your guide provides all of the necessary equipment needed during this excursion. Lake Clark National Park was only established in 1980. Which makes it a fairly new national park. Tons of bear inhabit this location from July- September just before they go into the mountains to hibernate. You can expect to see bears meandering down the lake shore with their cubs, teaching them to fish and survive on their own. Sockeye salmon begin running the river system in July and the Coho salmon begin in August. This is the perfect lunch for bears that need to gain tons of weight for hibernation. Your guide would be happy to catch and cook a fresh salmon for the perfect shore snack. You can expect to be one of very few people visiting this location on any given day.
