Good news, you don’t have to go broke buying bear bells to see Katmai National Park anymore. Only about 10,000 people visit the park each year, home to about 2,200 bears. The park is 275 miles from Anchorage and getting there involves several pricey flights and an extraordinary amount of planning (don’t forget to book a plane to come pick you up!). The National Park has setup a few high-def cameras and you can see a live stream of bears going nuts on the salmon spawn. It’s very active (or was when I wrote this).
