    This company is apparently shutting down. They just switched their ****** listing to permanently closed. But they still have people with paid reservations from months ago. They are canceling on people last minute even though they have known that the pilot's license was suspended on March 31, 2025 which is verifiable through the *** website: To check the validity of certificates for accident, incident and enforcement information visit *********************** to submit your request.I believe he is waiting to cancel on people til the last minute so he can keep their money as long as possible in his "crypto" account to gain as much as possible before he gives it back, leaving them to scramble last minute to find another tour. Martin Boland, owner, also doesn't even have authority from the ************* to go in to the parks. ************************************************************* Someone needs to warn the other people he still has booked that the owner is going to cancel on them last minute.

    In August 2022, myself and 2 friends arranged a bear viewing tour in Chinitna Lake ***** bay area in ****** with Scenic Bear Viewing based out of *****, **. The owner, Martin Boland, was our tour guide and pilot. In the capacity of our guide and pilot, Martin's actions failed in a number of areas. Martin abandoned us in a an uninhabited wilderness area without protection, provisions or shelter. He was neglect in not giving us a safety briefing prior to the trip or anytime during the trip. Martin's biggest failure was after leaving us, he made no attempt to contact emergency personnel or inform the *** or any other authorities about having left 3 people in bear country overnight in the pouring rain. My travel agent had to hire a helicopter to rescue us the following morning. Martin Boland's actions were so irresponsible and we are lucky to be alive!
