A few more Alaska pics/gems :-) 17 Years, 3 Months ago  
Hey Folks,

I added a couple more pics/gems taken by my other Kanektok Klan compadres to my original post. Many of them you may have seen from their posts but I think there are probably a few you haven’t. So here you go again, take another look at these for some more gems I added to the original pics.

As you can probably tell, I am still savoring that trip.

Best Wishes and tight lines to all!

Bluegrass Bill, still basking in the Alaska afterglow




Flying into Bethel Tuesday morning after flying all night, 8/21



Lots of folks sitting in Papa Bears Lodge waiting to get on their River



Finally Plane nearly loaded ready to hit the Sky



Greg, enjoying the scenery on the way to the lake



Our put in at the lake, the adventure about to begin.



The Kanektok Klan gang (minus Bluegrass Bill) ready to go, left to right
Eric Gilmore, Michael Wrisley, Greg Miller, Joe Tax




Shoving off the first morning



Michael with a nice dolly as we run into a big bunch of these fish shortly after starting



Me with one of the first of many nice Dolly’s



This is actually our second Grizzly we saw




Eric with a nice grayling



Me with another nice Dolly



Setting up camp, a daily ritual.



A look inside our kitchen tent with some very nice amenities



Getting ready to hit it again the next morning



Eric with one of his first really nice rainbows



Our 3rd bear in 3 days!



Saw bear tracks all over the place around our camps



Eric with one of many nice Silvers he caught



Obviously some happy campers



Greg taking a break from his photography/video efforts with a nice silver



Looking across river, Great camp spot we named Half Dome,
2 nights spent here



Joe with a beautiful rainbow from Half dome camp




A very chunky Dolly I caught from our Half Dome camp



A view of our “Half Dome” camp site from on top



A sunset at Half Dome



On top of Half Dome, Looking upriver from where we came




Eric in a very familiar pose for a good portion of our trip



Some nice wildflowers, compliments of Michael taking time to smell the flowers



A beautiful Midnight Moonlight Night and campfire


Me with a nice rainbow



The Beavers up there did magnificent work that any Engineer would have been proud of!



Michael showing off his photography skills with this neat underwater shot



Getting close to the end, some very contented folks



Eric with what had to be close to the largest rainbow anybody caught



Joe with a nice Silver from one of our hot spots



Me with a really beautiful bright Silver



Our last campfire, again some very contented campers




A neat picture by Eric, a salmon returning to the earth, seems appropriate as we reach the end of our trip.



The plane to pick us up at the journey’s end. Where did the time go??



Some of the great scenery flying out of Bethel.

Thanks again my Kanektok Klan for a great trip and experience!
