millions of Russians died here digging for gold
they used cyanide and other nasty stuff

Enjoy the fishing and have a few for lunch

Hmmm.....Interesting construction, that....

Sorry to inform you, Dave, but the gold digging was on the lower part
of Kamchatka. I was above Petro in very virgin country - sort of like
Alaska was 50 years ago. So sorry...... d)

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......)

Dave,

Looks like things haven't changed much since I visited in 2000. Pleased
to hear the fishing is holding up. Looking forward to seeing some pics.

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)
