Northwest Trek


On a sunny Saturday, we went down to Northwest Trek - our first time there. It was an hour and a half drive south, but very much worth it! We had a great time! We got there when it opened and jumped on the first tram ride. The tour guide drove us through the animals' home and we saw every animal living there: bison, elk, bighorn sheep, swan, geese, caribou, moose, bald eagle and mountain goats. Some were off in the distance, some were very camouflaged in the trees, and others were right next to the tram! Such a cool experience!

They also had a walking tour with animals in naturalistic exhibits: bears, wolves, coyotes, big cats (they were ALL hiding!) and forest animals.







We loved it so much, we bought a year's membership with guest passes. Looking forward to going back!
