Maintaining a Resource

    We at Baranof Wilderness Lodge use barbless tackle and practice catch & release for all fresh water fisheries.  We respect and thrive to preserve this precious ecosystem for the future while working hard to minimize the impact our presence brings to this great land. At the Lodge, we will package and freeze one box of halibut and salmon (from salt water) per guest for travel home.

   The unpressured waters around our lodge offer the most abundant and diverse salt- and freshwater fishing available in Alaska. Dozens of spectacular bays, estuaries, fishing streams and lakes within a short boat ride or hike from our lodge offer premier angling.

Tongass National Forest

The Tongass National Forest, surrounding Alaska's Inside Passage, is our national treasure: one of the last forests of its kind in the world where old growth forests, brown bears, eagles, and wild salmon still thrive.

Covering 17 million acres, over 1,000 islands, and stretching an area the length of Florida, the Tongass is America's largest National Forest.

This temperate rainforest provides a healthy, vital habitat for fish and wildlife, as well as world famous opportunities to fish, hunt, view wildlife, and enjoy the quiet of nature.

This symbol of Alaska, the Tongass National Forest, is home to healthy and abundant wildlife, vital spawning habitat for Wild Alaskan salmon, and world-renowned opportunities for recreation. With careful management, it will remain this way for generations to come.

Conserving the Tongass National Forest will preserve this one-of-a-kind rainforest and Alaska's outdoor heritage and way of life.
