Venture farther down to Bishop Bay off Urusula Channel to find another natural hot spring hot tub. Bishop Bay also has a dock, log boom, sheltered picnic table, barbecue pit, and pit toilets. So it's a great place to spend the night. For longer trips, fuel is available at the Native villages of Klemtu on Princess Royal Island, and Hartley Bay near the end of Douglas Channel. You may need cash at times.
Wildlife roams freely on many islands and throughout the mainland wilderness.
A lucky few spot one of the rare white Kermodei bears, who live on Princess Royal Island, Gribbell Island, and the mainland near Terrace. Deer, Elk and moose inhabit the forests along with mink, otter and other small animals. More likely, you will see aquatic delights like whales, seals, or sea lions. Playful porpoises enjoy following in the wakes of boats for short distances. Many types of birds populate the region, including eagles, herons, loons, seagulls, and ducks.
