WOW! Wildlife viewing was indescribably awesome and far surpassed our expectations. Mama bears with cubs, bears walking, sleeping, scooting along the ice with their chin on the ice and their rump in the air. Several opportunities to watch male bears play fighting. Fascinating to watch the submissive behavior of a big male bear who wanted to play with a much younger, and wary, male. Finally the big guy convinced the smaller bear he was not going to hurt him, and they engaged in posturing and play fighting before two other big males approached and got in on the action and the smaller individual backed off to watch. Amazing opportunities to photograph the bears in addition to cross fox, arctic fox, snowy owl and ptarmigan.
