A view of the Mountain Where the Lights Touch the Earth from the Salmon Run
After Kenai is transformed into a bear by the Great Spirits, Tanana informs him that he must travel to the Mountain Where the Lights Touch the Earth in order to appeal to the spirits to change him back. Kenai does not know the way, so he asks several animals in the vicinity, to no avail.
Later, Kenai meets a bear cub named Koda who knows of the Mountain Where the Lights Touch the Earth due to its close proximity to the Salmon Run. Because of this, Kenai begrudgingly agrees to accompany Koda there.

Being in such close proximity to the Great Spirits, Koda is able to reunite with his mother
Once the two reach the Salmon Run, Koda points out the Mountain Where the Lights Touch the Earth to Kenai. Though Kenai initially tries to depart, he decides to stay after spending a fun-filled day with the bears of the Salmon Run. However, after discovering that he is responsible for the death of Koda's mother, Kenai confesses the truth to Koda, then departs for the Mountain Where the Lights Touch the Earth.
Once on the Mountain Where the Lights Touch the Earth, Kenai calls out for the spirit of his brother, Sitka, but Sitka does not emerge until Kenai nearly sacrifices himself to save Koda from Denahi. In the presence of both Denahi and Koda, Sitka transforms Kenai back into a human. Ultimately, Kenai decides to become a bear permanently in order to care for Koda. While Kenai shares a final embrace with his brothers, Koda bids his mother's spirit farewell.
