Today, we said goodbye to our last Natural Habitat Adventures guests out at our Tundra Lodge. After an incredible 45 days of hosting guests on the tundra, our hardworking lodge staff finally stepped foot on solid ground today. Their dedication and passion for creating unforgettable experiences in the heart of polar bear country have been nothing short of amazing.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for an unforgettable season of wildlife, northern lights, and tundra magic.

We have a very special guest back at the lodge this morning! Meet Van Gogh, a legendary polar bear who first captured our hearts back in 2018. Named for his unique one-ear look, Van Gogh caused quite the stir on his first visit, and he's been unforgettable ever since. He's a bit more rugged these days with a few new scars, but he's looking strong and healthy.

Seeing him again reminds us of the resilience and wild beauty of the Arctic.

The big question is…when do you think the bay will freeze? Drop your guesses below. Will it be days, weeks, or longer? Let’s see who can predict it! 👇
