The preserve is home to raptors, waterfowl, and some rare Asiatic species. Fly out to Serpentine Hot Springs and spend a few nights in the bunkhouse while you hike among the huge granite tors which encircle the springs, sightsee, fish, and relax in the warmth of the hot springs. Camping, hiking, backpacking, exploration, nature observation, photography, and coastal boating are among the many possible activities.
Winter offers opportunities for snowmobiling, dog sledding, and some crosscountry skiing.
You can explore remains of the gold rush era and evidence of ancient Eskimo life. The Preserve and surrounding areas including Native villages, offer opportunities to observe and learn about traditional subsistence lifestyles and historic reindeer herding.
