Heading out in the morning. The boats we use are Double Eagle, which may mean little to you but a lot to the guides. Likely the best made boat on the BC coast and they have been in business for close to fifty years. Picture break on the floating dock in Glendale River estuary. A pause before heading to the viewing stands.

Made these pictures small to hide the true identity of the staff. We have each been with the lodge for ten or more years and the years are starting to show. But I am sure that when you trust us (Ed George Glen) with your lives in the boats every day experience is not a bad thing. Good food also comes from hours in the kitchen (Madeline). And of course Clint keeps the physical plant in good running order.

If you return to the main website and go to “About” and then to “Guest Book” you will be able to read what past guest say about the lodge.

As Lynn says “Stunning views of beautiful Knights Inlet from the float plane. We were so sad to leave after an unforgettable few days. We will be back!!” and “Geese taking off in the inside passage, a Humpback Whale blowing in the distance. In the background is Vancouver Island.” I missed the humpback in the background.
Whether viewing coastal British Columbia from an airplane or taking a “goose’s eye view” the scenery is worth the trip. There are many “TV” shows about flying over England, Ireland, Canada etc. ours is included and in “real time”. The 45 minute flight is a part of the experience that staff rarely experiences as we arrive by boat. For Lynn the airplane ride was the start of the wildlife viewing experience while the departing geese likely occurred on the whale watching day.
