Anderson River

Submitted by KinclovaIva on Fri, 04/19/2019 - 09:28

The Anderson River originates in lakes northwest of Great Bear Lake, NWT and travels for 1000km to the Beaufort Sea. It empties into the ocean in a well-know bird sanctuary. It is a remote river, with lots of wild-life and some easy to moderate white-water.

You can join the trip for all 7 weeks starting on Great Bear Lake or for 4 weeks starting in Colville Lk.

The 7-weeks option includes upstream travel on a small river and portaging between small lakes south of the source of the Anderson. The 4-week option out of Colville Lake is physically less demanding.

The trip ends by paddling through coastal lakes all the way to Inuvik.

Cost will be depending on number of participants, which part of the trip you will be doing and if you can fly on points between $2000-3000.
