Among these old growth forests, pristine rivers, striking mountains, soaring eagles and ravens is the powerful black bear.

Black Bear viewing is located 26 miles north of Ketchikan in Margaret Bay/Traitors Cove, which is accessible on a sixty to seventy minute boat ride. Your Six-Packed Licensed Captain will guide you on a saltwater safari through the Tongass Narrows, Clover Passage, and temperate rainforest to Traitor’s Cove, navigating the vessel on a path of scenic sanctuaries, stunning bays and inlets, past a majestic lighthouse, seeking marine and coastal wildlife viewing opportunities along the way. Quite often you will be able to observe the captivating behavior of whales breaching and tail-slapping, revere bear trails, and admire salmon streams; and you just might see Bald Eagles feasting on salmon leftovers from the bears foraging. At Traitor’s Cove dock, your adventure will continue together on a 1 1/4 mile drive by private car to the Margaret Creek trailhead. From here, you will be guided on a short 250 yard walk along a rainforest trail to the bear viewing falls.
