Explored the underwater kelp forests and hatchery in Kasnyku Bay by dingy. The kelp look like mermaids 🧜🏼‍♀️ Big momma grizzly and her three cubs were trying to snatch some fish from the hatchery. In all of the instances we’ve seen grizzlies so far, we’re surprised by their indifference towards our presence. I was under the impression they would be more fearful/skittish, especially with noise. We left the momma and her babies alone and found a white sand/granite beach that we thought we could let @Port run around on, until we found pretty large bear tracks. They must have been recent, as the high tide should cover traces of the tracks, so we promptly left.
