Business Spotlight
Kodiak Treks, owned and operated by Brigid and Harry Dodge
The key to Kodiak Treks success has been maintaining a focus on the health of the environment and wildlife species that attract our guests. Balance is critical since we aim to share the beauty of Kodiak Island with nature enthusiasts from around the world while minimizing impact on bears, other animal species, and the entire ecosystem that supports them. We strive to instruct guests how to behave respectfully in bear country as opposed to trying to train bears to accept human presence for our own economic gain.
By offering a small-group experience (6-guest maximum) we are able to closely manage each group and spend time with our guests in a personal setting. The small group design also allows us to run the lodge on solar power and minimize fossil fuel consumption.
Perhaps most importantly, we recognize and appreciate that our work allows us to continue to learn with each new group we welcome. Through various volunteer efforts with local organizations and land managers, we share our knowledge of Kodiak bears and promote quality, sustainable tourism which furthers the conservation of the pristine remote regions and wildlife species that flourish throughout the Kodiak Archipelago.
Kodiak Treks Sustainability Principles:
