The Fish Creek Wildlife Observation Site, situated along the Stewart Cassiar Highway in Hyder, AK, offers a unique opportunity to witness Black and Grizzly bears in their natural habitat during the peak months of July and August, as they feast on salmon. Operating daily from 6:00 am to 10:00 pm, this site is staffed by knowledgeable Forest Service employees who are available to provide insights on the bears and salmon behavior, enforce site regulations, and address visitor inquiries.

Visitors can expect an immersive experience with these majestic creatures for a fee at the viewing facility, without the option for camping on-site. The location is easily accessible by driving 6.4 km (4 miles) north of Hyder along the Salmon River Road, with convenient parking available near the Fish Creek bridge for easy access to the Observation Site.
