Home is a funny word. Most of us have a home we wake up in every morning; we might linger in the warm sheets on those frosty mornings, relish the smell of freshly brewed coffee coming from the kitchen and chit chat to our loved ones about the workday ahead.

Our two-week adventure began as we met our guide, Mike Hillman, and our 12 traveling companions. As we drove, we got to know our newfound friends and our wonderful guide, who made sure we were safe and well taken care of.

“Our best moment of the trip was when our group went on a river walk with our Expedition Leader at Brooks Falls. We were able to get up close and personal with several bears, including a mother in the water, her three cubs watching from the shoreline.

“This was our seventh trip with Nat Hab. Our remote location and the proximity to the bears made it one of the most memorable. When we stepped onto Katmai’s shore for the first time, our guide, Sean, told us we were 160 miles from the nearest improved road.
