Ocean Adventures from Prince Rupert, or Kitimat, feature mist shrouded islands, secluded coves, towering mountains and all the beauty that the west coast of British Columbia has to offer. Adventures may range as far out into the north Pacific as far as the Queen Charlotte Islands to view seals, sea lions, sea otters, whales, eagles and many other bird species as well as land animals that frequently travel the shore line. Ocean Adventures allow clients to choose either a prepared, or fresh crab, prawns or other seafood lunch cooked on board (or on a beach).

Nass Valley Adventures are full of wildlife, such as; black bears, grizzly bears, brown bears, moose, wolves, deer, fox, cougars, lynx, eagles, osprey, spawning Salmon and a myriad of others. There is no guarantee that you will see specific animals, as there are too many factors that can affect their behavior. We do know the best times and locations where viewing specific animals is very likely. Tour the Nass Valley lava beds on nature trails dotted with information boards about native myths and legends. Hike into spectacular secluded water falls. The Nass Valley is also home to the Tshimshan Nation. There are two villages, Kincolith and New Aiyansh, both rich with cultural histories. Both communities have carving sheds and traditional fish smoke houses. Guided visitors are welcome. As there is not time to tour the entire valley in one day, clients would choose their preference of two-three items.

River, Lake and Mountain Adventure clients will frequently view black bears, grizzly bears, brown bears, moose, wolves, mountain goats. deer, fox, cougars, lynx, eagles, osprey, spawning salmon and all sorts of other animals Again, there is no guarantee on what kind of animals you will see, only that you will certainly see many. These adventures bring clients to beautiful and breath taking sights such as huge cascading waterfalls, glaciers and majestic mountains carpeted with massive trees that are centuries old. I may offer a few one adventure that will include a visit to natural hot springs that you will not find on any map. Clients choose the day's agenda, suggesting what they'd prefer to see.

Spring Wildlife Adventures
As the sun's warmth begins to melt away winter's grip, nature begins it's annual renewal. From caves and burrows black, grizzly, brown and kermodi bears emerge, many protecting furry cubs. Songbirds, geese and ducks begin their northern migration, many making their homes in local areas. Moose, wolves, mountain goats, deer, fox, cougar, Lynx, eagles, osprey, and a myriad of other wildlife become much more active and visible. Spring in British Columbia is simply breathtakingly beautiful.

Summer Wildlife Adventures
Summer Wildlife Adventures lead you to valleys where the warm summer sun nutures lush and green vegetation where the sharp scent of pine fills the air as bear, moose, deer and other wildlife fatten on the abundance of food. Wild berries grow in profusion, and spawning salmon swarm up rivers and streams, providing bears with the body fat that they will need to survive a long winter sleep. The trees are filled with birds singing, bees are busy gathering pollen, gurgling streams, rivlets and creeks meander through the forests on their way to join rivers and lakes. The haunting call of loons echo through morning and evening mists as timid deer graze in its concealment. Eagles and hawks sweep the skies overhead as fox and wolves skillfully hunt below. Learn the stories and local legends of the land as you visit remote aboriginal communities. Summer Wildlife Adventures are always filled with exciting sights, sounds and experiences.

Fall Wildlife Adventures
Fall Wildlife Adventures begin as deciduous tree leaves turn blazing reds, oranges and golds while deer, elk and moose begin to runt and beaver busily stock their huts with tender branches and shoots for the approaching winter. Ducks and geese begin their noisy southern migration as bears feast from thousands of salmon in rivers, reaching their largest size before their winter hibernation. The fall landscape of northwest British Columbia, painted with spectacular color and full of amazing sights, is one of the most beautiful places in the world to see and be.

Winter Wildlife Adventures
Winter Wildlife Adventures are an excellent bug-free time to view a wide variety of spectacular song, fowl and raptor bird species including beautiful snow white Tundra Swans. It's the perfect season for the less adventurous, who prefer to avoid encounters with bears, as these giant carnivores hibernate. There is an abundance of moose and deer to see, and if you are "chosen", from the forest's shadows wolves may reveal themselves to you. Stay on the lookout for illusive Lynx, ermine, weasels, owls and a long list of other wildlife. During the winter months, our local waterfalls transform into giant cascading pillars of ice, sometimes each more than thirty meters tall. The entire landscape is blanketed with a deep carpet of glizzening white snow. Strap on those snowshoes, or cross country skis, and experience a fascinating winter world that few will ever get to know.

Adventures can accommodate groups of 10 (ten) or more with advance booking.
