Katmai National Park

This is a video and picture documentary of my trip to Katmai National Park in Alaska in 2004. We flew from Detroit to Anchorage and took a short hop to King Salmon, a small fishing village. From King Salmon we switched to a four seater float plane to Brooks Lodge. Right after we landed at Naknak Lake in Brooks Lodge, we were escorted to take bear orientation at the National Park Visitor Center. This is a mandatory requirement for every visitors. They taught us how to interact with bears as we literally were living with them in their natural habitat. End of June to early July is the best time to visit this magical place. This is the time when the salmons swim upstream to spawn. The view at Brooks Falls is truly magnificent. It is a view that I will remember for a lifetime.

Thank you very much. It was truly a magical place. It was a lot of fun putting the video together because it brings back the great memories we had there.

Very nice video. I really like the way you put it together. I too have some videos of my trip to Katmai on youtube. But my editing abilities are not quite up to par with yours.
