Scenics and Stories

Above the Marsh Fork on the Canning River

Evening light near Last Lake on the Sheenjek

A farewell to George Schaller before heading off in his footsteps to the Sheenjek Glacier and then to Kaktovik

Crossing the continental divide into the Hula Hula drainage

Leaving the mountains behind

Out on the coast among nesting eiders

About to blow the boats back up and paddle the 2 miles across the Beaufort Sea to Kaktovik from narrow Arey Island (you can see Kaktovik in the upper left).
