The only permanent residents of the Klemtu area, the Kitasoo/Xaixais people have lived in small villages along the rivers and bays long before European settlers. Many Kitasoo/Xaixais believe the Spirit Bear holds supernatural powers, with folklore stating that ‘Raven made one in every ten black bears white to remind the people of a time when glaciers covered this land.’ Witness this majestic bear up close on a journey that will take you from bustling Vancouver to peaceful Klemtu, British Columbia on a wildlife viewing experience of a lifetime!
