About
I am a guide, a naturalist, specializing in brown bears. My husband Ken and I own and operate Emerald Air Service in Homer Alaska-we have spent every day, the past 15 years, from mid May through October sharing the bears of Katmai National Park and Preserve with about 1100 people per season. Bears are not only our vocation, they are our avocation. They give us our living - we in turn advocate for them - active in conservation issues and pro-actively working through the agencies both state and federal on issues involving bear conservation, viewing ethics and management.
