Well i am back. It's been a long 3 months in bush Alaska but the trip paid off. Internet connectivity was sketchy so I have not been able to post for the past month or so. We had a limited amount of data usage so uploading photos was not an option anymore.
Fishing was great. I caught lots of silvers and loaded up on all 5 species of pacific salmon. Char were plentyful and always eager to bite and the rainbow fishing was nothing short of awesome.
take down of camp was smooth and I had a blast cooking for 6 guys including the 3 rafters who ended their trip short due to "bad weather" ok so it was not that bad but these guys just could not handle it....it really blew their minds to be rafting for 4 days eating dehydrated meals and then saunter into our camp only to be treated to a steak and salmon dinner complete with fresh vegies.
Our flight out of Quinhagak was a little behind schedule as the driving winds decided to really pick it up the morning of the 7th. I can't even describe the feeling as our caravan soared into the low cloud ceiling andI knew I was on my way home to the great state of Wisconsin, to family, and loved ones.
hear from you soon!
