 Northern Glacier Adventures hunts and fishes southwestern Alaska the Becharof National Wildlife Regfuge is a land of contrasts. From its rugged coastline to the 4,835-foot summit of the Mt. Peulik volcano (the name is taken from an Alaskan Native word meaning "smoking or smoking mountain"), it includes everything from tundra to braided, glacier-fed rivers to saw-toothed mountain ranges. But few would argue the assertion that the biological heart of the refuge is the lake that bears it name. Becharof Lake is huge; 35 miles long, 15 miles wide and as much as 600 feet deep, an is fed by two major rivers and numerous streams. This, the second biggest lake in Alaska and the largest in the entire National Wildlife Refuge System, is a veritable salmon factory. The 300,000 acre lake serves as a nursery for one of the world's largest run of Sockeye salmon.
It's estimated that Becharof Lake and its tributaries provide the Bristol Bay fishery alone with as many as eight million adult salmon per year. When Becharof's salmon are spawning, they attract and feed one of the largest concentrations of brown bears in Alaska. Moose are also present on the refuge in moderate numbers. Caribou of the Northern Alaska Peninsula Herd migrate through, and winter upon, Becharof.
Wolverine, fox, river otter and beaver round out the list of larger land animals; while harbor seals, sea lions, sea otters and whales are found offshore. Seabirds, as well as eagles and peregrine falcons, nest upon the refuge's coastal cliffs, and migratory waterfowl use the wetlands and coastal estuaries, than as nesting grounds and as staging areas on the way to and from their nest sites in the artic.
Becharof Lake is still uninhabited, untouched and pristine. Becharof Rapids camp is one of the only camps in the refuge area, located on the outlet of Becharof Lake. All five species of salmon plus Rainbow's/Char/Grayling/Northern Pike and Lake trout are available. Becharof Rapids Camp offers guided rafting trip in some of the remote streams through the refuge. Becharof Rapids Camp starts fishing at the end of June and runs through the first week in September. To start your trip with Becharof Rapids camp you'll fly commercial airlines to King Salmon, once in King Salmon Becharof Rapids Camp will do all of the arrangements with the float plane company to have you pick up in King Salmon for your short flight into Becharof Rapids camp (1/2 hour).
