  Just beautiful. Bears, eagles, salmon, beautiful & pristine setting - what else could you ask? We stayed near the river and loved it so much...didn't want to go home. Al little piece of paradise.

  We loved watching the bald eagles feeding off the fish in the river and even caught a picture of one swooping down to snag a fish!

  You will see Grizzly bears fishing for salmon and bald eagles coming in for the winter here at the Chilkoot. Beauty abounds. Relaxing and refreshing.

  We visited the Chilkoot 3 times while in Haines. I think this is the most beautiful place. We kayaked the lake, had a bike ride along the waterside and just sat and enjoyed watching all the eagles. Saw tons of salmon in the lake while kayaking. I loved this place

  A distance from the center of Haines, you will need to have a car or go by bus. A beautiful spot to observe eagles and individuals fishing the river. The DNR does a fish count here to monitor the fish returning to the spawning grounds. Just up the hill is a campground. In the evening hours the bears come down from the hills to feast on the salmon.

  Does not matter what time of the year it is you must make sure you don't pass this up. Beautiful! Rent a car or taxi. As I said this is a must see.

  We enjoyed watching the fish jump in Chilkoot Lake and the beautiful scenery along the river. We were not fortunate enough to see brown bears but did see many eagles. The eagles were high in the evergreens and on rocks down by the flats.

  Like most of Alaska this is a beautiful river and going up into the mountains and looking down is just stunning. Beautiful!

  First off, this river is stunning. The water is light teal and the river is filled with boulders. In addition to the scenery being perfect, the wildlife in this area is spectacular. While we were there (we rented bikes and rode up to the river/lake), we saw baby bald eagles, full grown bald eagles, salmon and a bear! We even were fortunate enough to see the bear eating salmon out of the river. Once in a lifetime experience!
