Image of the Month

Two large adult male Brown bears fighting over salmon, at Hallo Bay, Katmai National Park and Preserve, Alaska.

One image. One month.

Not necessarily the “best photo of the month”. Just a photo that speaks to me of the month.

Each month we feature a photograph that captures the essence of Alaska’s wilderness. Wildlife encounters to dramatic landscapes and the daily moments that make backcountry travel unforgettable. Lots of photos.

Enjoy
