Mike Stockburger's
Awesome Summer of '94!
|

When summer arrived Mike's brother
(Wes), and a high school friend from Vermont, went with Mike 750
miles up river to Nenana. They were going to Nenana because they were
hauling a saw mill back to Holmer. "So I had hardly any room in my
boat," said Mike. The ride took four days. During the four day trip
they saw villages they had not seen before. When night came they
camped out in tents and told stories. Mike's friend told them a story
about making maple syrup.
When making the syrup, he said, you
need at least 55 gallons of sap because 55 gallons of sap will make
one gallon of syrup. After you get the sap you have to boil it down
for hours and hours. Long ago people used to use horses and sleighs
to collect the sap, but now they use long hoses that connect from
tree to tree and go to the sugar bush (the shed) where they boil down
the sap. When you are done with the syrup you put it in jars and use
it with pancakes.
In Anvik they were going to camp out,
but a nice gentleman invited them to spend the night in his house. He
was the famous dog musher, Rudy Demoski. They stayed in his house for
one night. They also met George Huntington, Charlie Huntington's dad,
in Galena. Mike met many more people but he can't remember any names.
They saw only five other boats. Can you imagine traveling 750 miles
and only seeing five boats?
When they arrived in Nenana they put
the boat and saw mill on a trailer and drove it 450 miles by truck to
Anchorage. Then they went to Palmer and went fishing for halibut. He
said that when you fish for halibut you use a really heavy rod with a
hook that has a little herring on it. He also went dip netting for
salmon, commercial fishing, and caught crab and shrimp in pots. At
the end of the summer he went on a glacier cruise out of Seward where
he saw whales, seals, otters, a lot of eagles, puffins and
cormorants.
