As our season ends in the Great Bear Rainforest our ships move south and we take the time to reflect on the time we’ve spent in the Kitlope area. We’ve put together a few of our photos from the region from this year’s three trips by our extremely talented crew. This way, you can begin to understand the sense of wonder we have for this special place on our coast.
