A mother brown bear reunites with her 2½-year-old cub on the sand flats during low tide in Katmai National Park. Brown bear cubs often stay with their mothers for three summers, sometimes even longer — and as they grow, they gain increasing independence. This mother had been out fishing for flounder while her cub turned over rocks and ate mussels.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Our camping expeditions are a passionate collaboration between two experienced naturalist bear viewing guides who have spent years working together.
We specialize in intimate, ethical bear-viewing and photography experiences set against Alaska’s most breathtaking wilderness.
Our base camp provides a comfortable and respectful way to immerse yourself in bear country, offering a front-row seat to observe these magnificent animals in their natural habitat.
We believe that smaller groups create more meaningful and intimate experiences.
By welcoming only four to six guests per trip, we keep our footprint light while ensuring each moment with the bears is personal, unrushed, and unforgettable. Bassett's Bear Viewing Curious Nature Guided Adventures, LLC Erica Hausfeld

A camping expedition puts you in the heart of bear country — you sleep, eat, and breathe the same air, living among bears in their natural environment. You have unprecedented access to the golden morning and evening light, and experience the wilderness when visitors are fewest. For photographers, the lighting opportunities cannot be beat. For wildlife enthusiasts, the experiences are simply incredible. Bassett's Bear Viewing Curious Nature Guided Adventures, LLC

Appalling! After a ruling on March 7th, when a 2nd judge ruled the Mulchatna bear control program is unlawful, unconstitutional, and void, the state of Alaska F&G says they will continue with their aerial gunning predator control on Sunday, May 11th… 🤦‍♀️

The Department of Fish and Game said it will resume its predator control in Western Alaska, despite a court order two days earlier.
