Katmai Ausflugsprogramme ab Brooks River Lodge | Tagestour ab Anchorage

Katmai | Brooks River | Alaska Ausflugsprogramm, Die Zahl der Braunbären ist inzwischen auf über 2000 angestiegen. Auf dem Höhepunkt der Lachs Laichzeit im Juli - und dem Lachsstrom der nächsten Generation im September - konkurrieren 40 bis 60 Bären am Brooks River, am Naknek Lake und an den Ufern des Brooks Lake um die besten Fanggründe. Braunbären delektieren sich auch an Muscheln, Krabben und gelegentlich angeschwemmten Walkadavern an der 480 Meilen langen Katmai Küstenlinie. Die männlichen Tiere können hier ein Gewicht von bis zu 454 kg (1.000 Pounds) erreichen. Es ist keineswegs ungewöhnlich, im Schlamm einen Fußabdruck mit 30 cm (12 Inches) Durchmesser zu entdecken. Innerhalb des Parks lebt noch eine Vielzahl anderer Tierarten wie z.B. Elch, Fuchs, Biber, Bergschaf in einer unberührter Wildnis mit Flüssen, rauen Meeresküsten, breiten grünen Tälern, aktiven Gletschern und Vulkanen und zahlreichen Seen u.a. Naknek Lake, Kulik Lake und Brooks Lake.


Katmai National Park Tour Übersicht


KAT06 Valley of 10.000 Smokes
Departure: Daily Rate: $96.00
The June 1912 eruption of Novarupta Volcano altered the Katmai area dramatically. Severe earthquakes rocked the area for a week before Novarupta exploded with cataclysmic force. Enormous quantities of hot, glowing pumice and ash were ejected from Novarupta and nearby fissures. For several days ash, pumice, and gas were ejected and a haze darkened the sky over most of the Northern Hemisphere. When it was over, more than 65 square kilometers (40 square miles) of lush green land lay buried beneath volcanic deposits as much as 200 meters (700 feet) deep. "The whole valley as far as the eye could reach was full of hundreds, no thousands -- literally, tens of thousands -- of smokes curling up from its fissured floor," Griggs would write. One thousand steam vents reached 150 meters (500 feet) in the air, some more than 300 meters (1,000 feet). .
