Cutting Fish and Picking Berries

I spent my summer at fish camp. Clem and I cut and put two and a half buckets of salmon away. It took a month and a half to smoke all the salmon. Everyday I had to smoke the fish with alder or cottonwood. Whenever I ran out of wood I would cut more. They had to be smoked from morning to night. Clem, Jarin and I also stayed at fish camp when our house was being fixed on the inside.

I also went out berry picking behind our fish camp and sometimes above Marshall. The most exciting berry picking trip I had was when Clem, Julia, Vivian, Aaron, Bubb, Travis, and I saw a few black bears behind our fishcamp. We were walking toward the boat and when we stopped to rest, Aaron, Bubb, and Travis started playing. Suddenly a black bear popped out in front of us. Clem shot at it once and the bear ran into the trees. When we started walking away from the area the bear came out behind us. After a second shot, we never saw the bear again. But while we were walking back to the boat we saw another bear below us. We watched it for a couple of hours while it roamed the tundra eating blue berries. Then we finally went home. Later that evening, Roy caught one of the bears we had seen.
