Salmon aren't jumping quite high enough for #428 to catch them. #Alaska #KatmaiNationalParkAlaska #BrooksFallsAK

Bear be like "I can only eat one of you at a time!!" 😜 #Alaska #KatmaiNationalParkAlaska #BrooksFallsAK

LOL! Overwhelming for this young bear. I love, love, love the lifting of the paw! #Alaska #KatmaiNationalParkAlaska #BrooksFallsAK

It has not stopped! This is the kiddie pool and these two bears are just feasting away. #Alaska #KatmaiNationalParkAlaska #BrooksFallsAK

Only two bears are feeding on all these fishies! I've never seen anything like this salmon run from Bristol Bay! The runs in the Kenai River are amazing, too. #Alaska #KatmaiNationalParkAlaska #BrooksFallsAK #BrooksFallsBears

Boil, boil, boil...it's never-ending! #Alaska #KatmaiNationalParkAlaska #BrooksFallsAK #BrooksFallsBears

Bear #26 and her coy. So precious! They both have natal collars. They are in that space where Lake meets River. #KatmaiNationalParkAlaska #BrooksFallsAK #KatmaiBearsandCoy

The salmon boiling continues at Brooks Falls in Katmai National Park! And there are no bears there. #Alaska #KatmaiNationalParkAlaska #BrooksFallsAK #SalmonBoil

A still shot view from the Dumpling Mountain cam where you can clearly see the viewing platform bridge where Naknek Lake turns into Brooks River. You can also clearly see the river wind its way around to the Falls of Brooks River. 24/7 cameras operate in the summer months until they run out of power in the early Fall. To me, this is one of the most precious places on earth, and it was the honor of my life to briefly witness the magnificent bears who come here every summer to fish, eat, show off their coy, sleep, play, swim, eat volcano ash, etc., before winter hibernation. Yes, I am obsessed, and I do not apologize for it. #Alaska #KatmaiNationalParkAlaska #BrooksFallsAK

This is from the Dumpling Mountain cam that overlooks Naknek Lake, Brooks Falls, Brooks River, and Lake Brooks. To your far left is Naknek Lake. People arrive at Brooks Falls by boat or plane. You can see the viewing platform bridge closest to Naknek Lake. That is the starting point of viewing the bears in Katmai National Park via Brooks River & Brooks Falls. You can see the winding river that arrives at the Falls. There are numerous cams around the river, viewing platform, and at the Falls. There are no cams beyond Brooks Falls, which, in this video, you can see that Brooks River empties into Lake Brooks. Katmai National Park consists of over 4 million acres and is the largest national park in the United States. Where I live in Alaska, I am about a 2-hour flight from Brooks Falls, and I've only been once...so far! Thank you for attending my extremely inept and incomplete briefing on Katmai National Park's famous Brooks Falls. #Alaska #KatmaiNationalParkAlaska #BrooksFallsAK #DumplingMountainAK

Salmon jumping the Falls at Noon AKST. There is one bear in the water. #Alaska #KatmaiNationalParkAlaska #BrooksFallsAK #SockeyeSalmon

I have fallen in love, my friends!! This is "L" Bear. He suffered a horrendous injury to his back and hind legs some years ago, but wow, what courage! I know his life has been extremely painful and difficult, but to see him near the Falls in Katmai is just amazing to see. And watch him climb! 💗 #Alaska #LBear #KatmaiNationalParkAK #BrooksFallsAK

For the last several days, I have been obsessed with the Katmai bear cams. Not necessarily for the bears, but the number of salmon! I have never seen it like this before. Millions of salmon, very few bears. #KatmaiNationalParkAK #BrooksFallsAK #WhereAreTheBears

Katmai National Park bear cams showing the number and HUGE size of salmon at Brooks Falls. Bears?? I've circled the pools of fish near the Falls. Not many at all. Salmon are running extremely well in the Naknek River, which runs into Brooks Falls. Hopefully, more bears will show up soon! #KatmaiNationalParkAK #BrooksFallsAK #WhereAreTheBears
