Where can you see bald eagles this close?

Each day, from Monday to Friday, you will be guided to a blind that is guaranteed to produce many excellent, up close and personal photographic opportunities of bald eagles as they feed and interact. Return to The Lodge for a delicious dinner and discussion about the day.

After breakfast on Saturday, you will be transported to Thunder Bay.  

Group sizes are kept small (maximum six) in order to create the best wilderness experience possible.
