Bear Cave Mountain is located within Fishing Branch Ni'iinlii Njik Park. The park protects this far northern Yukon wilderness with unique features created by limestone caves, year-round open water, salmon runs, and grizzly bears.
Rugged mountains, gentle slopes, floodplains and karst geology (including caves) are typical of the North Ogilvie Mountains Eco-region and Fishing Branch Park. Surface features - lichens, coniferous forests, bare soil and rock, heather and herbs - are also representative of the eco-region.
Phil Timpany, our manager, is a renowned bear specialist and wildlife photographer. His expertise and passion for the bears and the ecology of this area make the partnership between the Vuntut Development Corporation and Bear Cave Mountain Eco-Adventures unique and successful.
Fishing Branch not only provides world-class bear viewing opportunities but is also a cultural and historical area for the Vuntut Gwitchin First Nation, with an oral history dating back thousands of years.
