An abundance of Grizzly bears, Bald eagles, foxes and wolves all live in this place. My wildlife encounters throughout the week were everything I imagined and more. No spray required.Īs a travel destination, Alaska is an amazing, challenging, beautiful place. He skids to a stop his point proved and swaggers off. This Grizzly’s charge is thankfully just a bluff. Confident in his actions and tone of voice he takes a step forward and firmly and loudly tells our charging male “No bear, NO” several times. Lightning-quick Phil grabs for bear spray. Holding my camera, I steady myself focusing on getting the shot. Just as abruptly, as if he says to himself, ‘Hang on a minute, I’m the bear’, he suddenly stops mid-run, turns and charges back towards us. He is going to try to re-wild BOTH of his 700 lb grizzly bears that he has raised since babies. Having raised, trained and worked with bears his entire life - Jeff decides to do something thats never been done before.
#GRIZZLY ADVENTURE HACKED SERIES#
Without warning the Grizzly turns and runs away from our direction. Project Grizzly is an incredible series about world famous bear trainer, Jeff Watson and his grizzly bears, Bob and Screech. With the Grizzly 40 metres away from us, Phil looks to change our position to have room to exit quickly if needed. A male Grizzly appears – he is immediately alerted to our presence. As if on cue, she walks within an arms reach of me before continuing to slowly walk past. I find myself holding my breath, not in fear but trying to ensure I don’t miss the shot. The bears look up again, more curious this time staring straight at us. It’s such a humbling experience viewing this remote landscape from above.Īn Alaskan grizzly bear catching breakfast in Hallo Bay. The flight to Hallo Bay is just over an hour. My fellow adventurers include a Scot and two Californians, all just as excited as I am about this adventure.
I arrive at the small airstrip in Homer and am met by our pilot Jessie, and our six-seater plane. I’m a mix of emotions at this point, really excited about getting close to Grizzly bears in the wild, but equally nervous about living in the remoteness for a week with these powerful creatures. Hallo Bay is surrounded by just over 10,000 square kilometres of Katmai National Park on three sides and the Pacific Ocean on the other. You can beat opponents by jumping on them or throwing apples on theirs noses Added on. And even more custom levels submitted by the grizzly community. It’s always good to be prepared when you’re over 500 kilometres from the nearest access road and 200 kilometres by air from the nearest civilisation. Grizzly adventure is a colorful Platformer game with a massive 30 levels in 3 different worlds. I have packed for every contingency, even purchasing a GPS locator in case of emergencies.
Even in summer Alaska’s weather is highly unpredictable and can fall to zero degrees overnight. This trip has been months in preparation.
