Climbing Mountains Running
Rivers
After I got home to Fairbanks in May,
I took a short walk in Denali National Park with some friends in
search of a wolverine den. We wanted to take some pictures of the
wolverine, if possible, but after climbing to the top of a mountain
we couldn't find him. There were plenty of DalI sheep, though, and I
took plenty of pictures of them - probably 25 ewes and lambs
altogether. We also came across a hoary marmot which we
photographed.
Not long afterward I took a hike with
a friend of mine, Dave Boyd, back to some land I have next to Denali
National Park. We walked 30 miles in two days across some pretty
rough country, which made it a very quick and rigorous
trip.
In mid June I attended a Y2K workshop
in San Francisco where I learned all about the Y2K problem. I also
visited with my son and daughter while I was there. It was good to
see them and my three grandchildren again.
My next adventure was in late June
when I took a 300 mile long canoe trip down the Alatna River with my
son Steven and Andrew Benedetti. Along the route we stopped at the
Arrigetch Peaks and climbed in the mountains and glaciers in the area
for three days. It was there where I fell from a tree and broke my
collarbone while trying to hang our food away from the grizzly bears.
A little farther down the river we stopped to camp on Takahula Lake
and climb Takahula Mountain. We also visited for two days with some
friends.of mine who have a small wilderness cabin on the lake. The
next day we continued our trip down to the Indian village of
Allakaket, which we reached in four days. We camped near the village
for a day before heading home by mail plane.
After returning to Fairbanks, I
worked on my house for a couple of Weeks and prepared for the arrival
of my mother and two nephews who were scheduled for a two visit at
the end of July. While they were in Alaska, I took my nephews and and
son Steven all over the place, mountain climbing, canoeing, glacier
climbing, and hiking. After they left for their homes in Canada, I
prepared to come back out to Marshall again.
