Dear Friends,
Come join me in the wilds of Alaska for an adventure of a lifetime. Hosted at The Lodge 58 North with Kate Crump in King Salmon, Alaska. Located 300 miles SW of Anchorage and home to Katmai National Park, where the landscape is vibrantly alive and where we are reminded of what it is to be truly wild.
You will have the opportunity to learn to fly fish from one of the best female anglers in the world—Kate Crump, cold plunge in the crystal waters of Bristol Bay, hike with a local naturalist amongst the Alaskan bears, learn to cook on an open fire at the river’s edge, hear the stories from the local native elder about the history of this ancient, beautiful place and learn what we can do to help protect this part of the planet.
This is more than an adventure—it’s a story you’ll carry forever.
Cheers!
-Libby

June brings a unique energy as everything comes alive after a long winter. Coastal brown bears prepare for the first salmon runs, and the extended daylight—up to 18 hours—offers endless opportunities to explore the stunning Bristol Bay wilderness. These long days recharge the soul and make every adventure unforgettable. On this Wild Alaska Adventure Camp, we’ll explore iconic trails in Bristol Bay, including Katmai National Park, Brooks Falls, and hidden gems. Hike through pristine landscapes of rolling hills, wetlands, and breathtaking vistas. Experience Alaska’s rich biodiversity, from migratory birds to vibrant plant life, and immerse yourself in the raw beauty of the Last Frontier.
Our guides are experienced, knowledgeable and focused on safety. We are all patient teachers who love to share Bristol Bay with our guests and meet them at their ability. With three female guides on staff, The Lodge at 58* North provides a unique experience in Alaska’s landscape.
