Welcome to the Knight Inlet Lodge staff blog page. it is our hope over the coming months to use this part of our blog for staff to share their adventures while working at Canada's premier grizzly bear viewing lodge. Please "bear" (sorry I couldn't resist) with us while we get things up and running.

Here is a photo of the grizzly sow with her 3 cubs. Note how the one is almost white in colour. This photo was taken by Knight Inlet Lodge guide Moira Le Patourel.

The last few days have seen the end of our hot and dry summer. With the return of the rain the Glendale River has seen its water levels rise to where the pink salmon that have been waiting in Glendale Cove are now working their way up the river.

The spring of 2009 has seen Orca Whales appear twice in Glendale Cove where our lodge is located. While this is unusual it is not unheard of compared to the Humpback Whale that stopped by for a visit at the end of May. For a few early season guests that were fortunate enough to be out on a marine tour this was truly their lucky day! We do not expect these sightings to continue right at our back door but we are looking forward to an excellent season of whale watching in 2009. Of course if the whales do continue to show up in Glendale Cove we won't complain!
