Unlike traditional float trips that depend on guides and anglers to set-up and break down camp each day, the Zhupanova float incorporates six permanent river camps 6-8 river miles apart. Over the course of the 6 day trip anglers move between the camps via inflatable rafts. Anglers will be able to relax at the end of each day in relative comfort, enjoying hot showers, cold drinks, permanent wood cabins or modern high-tech tents with beds, mattresses, and a well-equipped dining facility. Highly qualified Russian and American guides provide for your safety, angling success and comfort.

August through October.

Two anglers share a small wooden cabin or a high-tech, weatherproof, double-walled "tent cabin," similar to the weather-port cabins in use in many Alaskan camps. Each cabin has wood floors, a wood stove for heat (usually only needed in the fall), bed frames and mattresses. You must bring a sleeping bag for this trip. There are two clean flush-toilet outhouses per camp, as well as multiple shower facilities with good water pressure and endless hot water, courtesy of an ingenious Russian wood-fired plumbing system. The kitchen / dinning rooms are permanent log yurts, and all camp infrastructure is connected by extensive wooden walkways.

The food in Kamchatka is tasty and plentiful, though certainly not gourmet. Fresh meats and locally grown, geothermal hot-house vegetables are the features of a cuisine not unfamiliar to the American palette. Delicious Russian soups like borsh and ukra are always the customary first course and a favorite with our guests. A variety of salads are served during lunch and dinner. Beer is provided with dinner, with additional beer and vodka available for sale. Other or special libations must be brought from the United States.

There are a few different ways to get to Kamchatka depending on the season. Direct Flights Via Alaska may be available a few weeks each summer from Anchorage to Petropavlovsk. Or from Moscow and Seoul to Petropavlovsk.
