Tundra Lodge
Sleeping with the polar bears? Not quite, but the new Great White Bear Tundra Lodge lets you get about as close to sleeping with the bears as anyone would care to be! Situated close by the shore of Hudson Bay in the Churchill Wildlife Management Area, the Tundra Lodge is a great place to bear watch, catch the aurora on a clear night, or just plain relax between rides out on the All Terrain Buses.
The lodge is built on mobile patforms as individual units. There are two sleepers (only one shows in the above picture), a lounge car, a dining car, and a utility/crew car. A generator provides electricity for lights and battery charging. Heat is provided by propane furnaces.
Our lodge sleeps 36 people in individual rooms (restrooms are shared). The dining car has a six burner commercial stove and griddle; several BBQs are on the deck. The lounge car has a TV, VCR, and a slide projector. Cabins (and the bunks in them) are single occupancy; half are upper bunks (climb a ladder), half are lower (floor level) bunks. |
