Brown Bear with cubs - Anan Creek, Tongass National Forest, Alaska
Anan Creek, in the Tongass National Forest, is best-known for its concentration of black bears during the pink salmon run. But brown bears are also known to frequent the area. While we were in Wrangell, Alaska, before continuing on by boat to Anan Creek, we heard about a brown bear with multiple cubs that had been in the area and we saw some photos and video. It is not uncommon for brown and black bears to have multiple cubs. Two is not unusual and even three occur on occasion. But four cubs is truly remarkable. This particular brown bear had four new cubs, also known as “cubs of the year” or COY. We were very fortunate to see and film them our first two days at Anan. All four cubs were quite small and it is unlikely more than one will survive. The adult female was very cautious and protective of her young. After our first two days, another female brown bear, this one with two considerably larger COY, appeared on the scene. We believe her presence caused the female with four COY to leave the area.
In this sequence, the female with four cubs has come up Anan Creek and displaced a juvenile female brown bear, probably in its third summer and the first it has been on its own. The juvenile cautiously takes up a position higher on the steep sides of Anan Creek. The mother keeps track of the juvenile and, after she has had some success catching pink salmon for herself and her four cubs, she returns to the rainforest. The juvenile female returns to the creek and has somewhat mixed results in catching salmon. She sniffs at the other female’s scent and I can’t help but wonder if they might be related.
The juvenile here is also a likely sibling of another juvenile female we observed in the Anan area. One of them, called “Phar Lap”, had recently approached groups of people on the trail on three occasions and received a dose of pepper spray each time. There were no other such occurrences after that. But even walking alone on the approximately 1¼ mile trail from the cabin to the falls, making two round-trips every day during a week-long visit, we rarely even met a bear and certainly had no negative encounters.

Pistol shooting match in Wrangell, Alaska
We had a pistol match awhile back in Wrangell, Alaska. We are hoping that someday we can start a USPSA club here. If you are interested let us know. Leave me a comment, like, and subscribe to the channel. Thanks!
The audio was a little difficult to edit on this one. Sorry for it going up and down a lot. Hopefully I'll get the bugs worked out next time.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

RV'ing Alaska's Inside Passage
The adventure begins on beautiful Vancouver Island in British Columbia with a visit to Telegraph Cove, possibly the best place on Earth to view Orca (killer whales). We continue north to Ketchikan, Alaska's first city on the Inside Passage. Here we explore the spectacular Misty Fjords National Monument by kayak and float plane. We also learn about the art of totem pole carving and watch as they are created. A short side trip by ferry takes us to Prince Of Wales Island, which has more than 2,000 miles of logging roads for exploration. The island is also known for its luxury fishing lodges.
Wrangell calls itself Alaska's Hidden Jewel and is paradise for those seeking outdoor adventure! Many say that if you're looking for the real Alaska, you'll find it here. The Anan Bear Observatory is considered to be one of the best in the state and the only place where black and brown bears feed together. We take an exciting jet boat tour up the Stikine River - the last great un-dammed river on the continent - and visit Telegraph Creek as well as the Grand Canyon of the Stikine.
The ferry becomes part of the adventure as we head north through the Wrangell Narrows - the single most difficult navigational stretch on the Passage. Petersburg is Alaska's Little Norway and Southeast's busiest processing port, home to the area's largest fishing fleet. Sitka was once the Russian capital of Alaska and is one of the most beautiful spots on our route. We explore the town's history and native culture. The Alaska Raptor Center offers a close-up at eagles. A wildlife cruise to St. Lazaria Island lets us observe whales, puffins, sea lions and otters. A snorkeling tour reveals Alaska's underwater world.
Juneau is the state capital. The biggest attraction is Mendenhall Glacier, which we explore with an exciting helicopter tour and glacier trek. Some of the best humpback whale watching is within a short boat ride of town. Incredible glacier calving and towering cliffs can be seen at nearby Tracy Arm. Side trips take us to beautiful Glacier Bay and the quirky little town of Pelican.
Our adventure ends with a tour of historic Skagway and more wilderness adventures in Haines, including a river tour, an air boat ride and panning for gold.
Imagine taking a tour of Alaska and bringing your home along for the ride! Join us on our RV adventure and get helpful tips to plan your own. - views before 6/12 - 4,190 - uploaded 9/7/09
