Leaving aside the question of virgins for the moment g, how long
did it take after one of those helicopter flights for enough blood
to flow back into your knuckles that you could hold a fly rod? :-)

Nice report. Looking forward to the pix. (and hoping you took some
of the chamber maids......)

Anadyr? Whoa. They had you way in the sticks for a refuel.

I didn't much care for Magadan Air. I thought the plane was going to
shake apart when we took off from Anchorage, and when we landed in
Petro, I'm willing to bet that pieces *did* fall off.

I got some pix of MiG31 (NATO designation Foxhound) that were parked
near their reventments at Petro's airport. I suppose I could have
been picked up for spying. d;o)

there was one good thing about the aging aircraft ..mid-week our
group was informed thatthe plane was out of service in Anchorage with
no idea how long it would take to fix. We were given the choice of
staying at the lodge and fishing or getting on the helio and spending
an
unknown number of days in petro.....got an extra 4 days for free
although the poor guys waiting to replace us in Motel 6 in anchorage
were a little****ed that we were fishing, eating and drinking on their
dime.
They only got 3+ days on the river.
