> Bought a ton of new gear. Alaska or bust some day. Doug Come on up to Alaska! It finally stopped snowing! Still cold though. Yesterday morning is was about 35 degrees and blowing about 25. Chilly! My son gets home from college in about two weeks so hopefully we can find some time kayak camp before he starts his summer job repairing cabins for the forest service. By the way if anyone who dreams of kayaking in Alaska let me recommend the LeConte Glacier. It is about 24 miles from Petersburg and provides stunning scenery and magnificent icebergs. There are several campsites along the way and an excellent one inside LeConte Bay itself. Another trip out of Petersburg is a late July early August kayak from Petersburg to Kake. About 65 miles with lots of humpback whales. Also Petersburg is on the Seattle to Skagway or Glacier bay route and I would be glad to assist anyone attempting that trip. Petersburg is accessible by the Marine Highway system and Alaska Airlines. If any one out there wants to come up I can assist you with logistics, maps, mail pick up, boat hauling, a place to sleep at the church, plenty of stories ect. Just send me an email and we can get to planning see you on the water Bob *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
