Looking directly behind me from the previous photo I shared (#11,343)...our single tent camp is hidden in a thicket of trees along the river below...

You all are good. Love the thread!

It just wouldn’t be right, driving up to Fairbanks, without stopping here for a beer.

I always get comments/questions on the big "I heart skinny dick's" sticker on my gun case. I haven't been there in a few years and still smell like cigarette smoke!

I am getting to better pictures, but this was my little girl. One driven hunting bitch. Around 2006 salmon river.

Texas classic here. Scissor-tailed flycatcher. Okay, it's Oklahoma's state bird.

The calendar shows that summertime is less than two months away, but it sure does look a lot farther away than that.

One of those picturesque opportunities as we flew directly south out of ANC a couple days ago (Wednesday evening at 7pm). We've done it hundreds of times, but it never gets old for us.

First gaining elevation over Cook Inlet after take-off...looking to the east up Turnagain Arm...

...and then continuing southward over the Kenai Peninsula...




My apologies for exceeding the "one photo a day" theme...I wanted to give a perspective of the first 15-minutes of a direct south flight out of ANC on a clear day.

One of my absolute favorite places on earth. Also only 100 or so miles from my house.

this a year and three months ago.. It is when the salmon river started to break. It frozen solid here four four months. Picture is taken off my deck. NO roads for forty miles upriver or down river.

The second picture is a great shot of Skilak Lake with the middle/lower Kenai River exiting. Can’t quite see the Upper Kenai River coming in at the top, but that is probably my single most special place, in this great state we live in.

First leg of my trip to Africa, Walla Walla to Seattle, home in a month

Got a little close to this guy, not on license for me. 300wm seemed rather inadequate.
No harm no foul.

Right on TB...I totally agree with you!

Looks like the Broad Pass area...if so, one of my favorite areas in our wonderful state!

Nyala, almost let him go, guide didn’t think he would go over 27 inches. He stepped into cover then back out. Guide said you better shoot him!
