It's been a lifetime, almost 40 years, since I was last in Alaska, 1982 and I was 30 years old. A long time friend invited me on a trip to his favorite fishing spot, and it just so happens that it's in Alaska, so I had to say yes. This trip spans 10 days, starting in Fairbanks and taking us to the Kobuk River in the Brooks Range, then to King Salmon on Bristol Bay, and finally out to Anchorage....

This was the last video of the canoe while in the shop (I was closing the shop after 20 years, getting ready for retirement). It's not 100% complete, but close. Taken 2018-05-16

Here we are with a few more additions completed. The date is 2018-04-18

This is the boat when I first got it into the shop. I've done a little work on it but it shows the boat before my additions. The date is 2018-02-23

This is the sunken hull of the steam ship "Klondike". It's been in the middle of the river for over ??? years now. Very cool.

We had been on the Teslin a few days by now and were sitting in camp when we heard something upriver. What we saw was pretty amazing. A home built raft made from complete logs, lashed together with cables, complete with a bar and a fire pit in the middle. It was built in Whitehorse by Rob, and they are trying t o get all the way to Dawson. I wish them luck.

My daughter and I spent about two weeks camping/canoeing in the Yukon. The Teslin-Yukon trip was the best (Johnsons Crossing to Carmacks). There are three short Videos in this river trip series.

This was the start of a week long trip back into the east arm of Frances Lake, Yukon. The lake was glass smooth and the fishing for Northern Pike was great.

Cutler Res. is in Logan, Utah, on the Bear River. The 21' Hudson Bay Freighter is lightly loaded with three people, gas, and a little food. Maybe about 900 lbs. Got a top speed of 17.5 mph at full throttle.
