TR: Alaska, Kanektok River

[chas]

Well, it's just a photo essay. Right now only half the pictures show up
because I ran into a limitation on the web site. I think I need to have a
second site for the rest of them, but I haven't worked that out yet.

As Willi and Steve have already reported, it was a great trip.

That was awesome! I've seen pictures of Alaska in magazines and heard
stories from my g-father when he was stationed up there back in the 40's.
Just never gets old. Nice pictures Chas

I have two pages up now, the first half is the link I posted,
http://home.comcast.net/~kanektok/index.htm
The second half is:
http://home.comcast.net/~kanektok2/index.htm

Soon I'll put links on each of there to the other page.

Cool shots! I especially like the one you got with the Silver taking
your fly.

Nice. A quick question: since you were sleeping in tents, did you have
to take some extra precautions against the bears ?

I'm not sure anyone would refer to the precautions as "extra". We had bear
spray in each tent, and we kept the food and cooking away from the tents. This
could be a seed for a long thread about bears, suffice it to say we saw sign on
every single foot of the bank but we only saw one bear and he took off when
Willi shouted "bear!" to alert my dull mind to his presence.

Yeah, and bring me along next time.

Your pictures made me very reminiscent of the trips I did up there
about 10-12 years ago. I'm very envious of your trip, and I don't get
envious very easily... Damn nice pics!

You'd be most welcome, particularly if you bring along something that passes
for protection in Africa!
