Gourmet food

May 9, 2015 Lodge Guide

We frequently have guests say: “I now know why you want us to keep our luggage on the incoming plane at 10 kg (app. 20 lbs.). It is because of the weight we add eating.” Meals at the lodge are not only gourmet they are a social occasion. It does not matter if it is the first meal before any tours or the last meal before you leave there is always lots to talk about. Dinner is normally around 6:30 and we seldom leave the table before 8:30 so it can be set for morning breakfast and then the conversation carries on in the “living room”. The one thing the guest comment about beside the great food is that they eat with the staff, which is always around to answer questions and provide great stories.

Bald Eagles

Bald Eagles are frequently sighted in our area. At times they can be seen in large numbers. This is usually where food supplies are high. For example this could be in areas with high concentrations of baitfish or along the rivers in the fall when the salmon are spawning. They are not migratory, but do move around with the food supply. As mentioned earlier when the salmon are spawning we often see many along the rivers, while there will be fewer along the coastline. With little need for camouflage their white head and tail feathers can be spotted easily. The female is slightly larger and her white head extends down a bit farther onto the body, but it is subtle. It takes these birds 4.5 – 5 years to acquire this unique plumage. As juveniles they are a brown colour. With exceptional eyesight and the ability to view 270 degrees they are understandably often seen in high perches and in trees near points and passageways.
