Bear activity has been increasing all around as thousands of salmon are returning from the Pacific Ocean to enter fresh waters (rapids/creeks and rivers) in order to spawn (lay eggs). So, the bears are trying to eat as much as possible to accumulate enough fat in preparation for the tough Alaskan winter... hibernation is around the corner. To be surrounded by so much beauty is truly a privilege!
