Bear Claw Lodge
The Cliffs at Kispiox River is home to the 15,000 square foot post-and-beam Bearclaw Lodge located on the world-famous Kispiox River (Containing the world's largest strain of wild Steelhead). Imposing 22’ carved Totem Poles stand guard in the foyer behind the massive, three story river rock fireplace. Snowcapped Baldy Mountain dominates the view from the dining room windows, where our heliskiiers are only an 8 minute flight from. Bedroom sliding glass doors open to a stone walk balcony overlooking the Kispiox River. The scent of cedar and fresh homemade bread drifts through the lodge. It truly is, a luxury accommodation in the wilderness.
