Description
There is an unmatched stillness in the Khutzeymateen Valley during the early months of the season. Watching this beautiful coastal grizzly confidently lock eyes with my lens from the shoreline was a profound reminder of why this protected sanctuary is so vital. No rush, no drama, just a true master of the Great Bear Rainforest navigating its ancient home. Shot on the traditional territory of the Gits'iis Tribe, Ts'msyen Nation.
