December 01, 2025 RV Navigator Episode 248 -Polar Bears in the Wild
Your RV Navigators want to wish all of our listeners a very merry Christmas and a prosperous new year. For your favorite RVer, we’ve included some gift suggestions in case your still shopping.
This month has been a busy one for us, as we travel to Churchill, Manitoba to see the polar bears in their nature environment. This was not an RV trip as we traveled by plane 1300 miles North to Hudson Bay, home to the Polar bears. Viewing is done in tundra rovers. These are large bus like vehicle that are designed for rough terrain with huge wheels and special suspension/engine. We were luck to get within feet of the bears for some great photos. This was a 6 day adventure so we were back home in IL before we knew it ready to head back to FL for a couple of weeks. Now after TG we are once again back up north ready too enjoy the holiday season in snow.
