Today we’re venturing deep into the Great Bear Rainforest of British Columbia, where Nimmo Bay Wilderness Resort has been welcoming guests to one of the most remote and breathtaking corners of Canada for over 45 years.

Joining me today are Fraser and Becky Murray, the husband and wife team behind Nimmo Bay – a place that started as a family fishing lodge and has evolved into a world-renowned luxury wilderness destination focused on bears, whales, helicopters, and some seriously incredible food.

We talk about everything from the hydroelectric system powering the lodge off a waterfall, to the wildest wildlife encounters guests have had, to what it actually does to a person to spend a few days truly immersed in this kind of wilderness.
