Wild Iris on the riverbank
Lots of rapids and narrow passes today. We go with slack water and it is a non-event. Lots of wildlife enroute to Sitka, whales, deer but no bears. Just as we get to go though Whitestone pass (Lots of markers, buoys and range markers and very narrow) – Oceanaire and Ladner Lass manage to get caught in the pass with the Highspeed Catamaran “Fairweather”. A pull out to let the Catamaran Ferry pass and all is well. The mountains on the islands surrounding Sitka are amazing. Lots of 4000 to 8000 year old extinct volcanos. Off to see the puffins and do some sightseeing for the next three days. I hope to get some time over the next few days to update all of the photographs while we are here. Another week to 10 days and we start our return trip home.
really enjoying your blog and great pictures as usual. I was wondering if you had any effects of the earthquake Alaska had the other day????
