TOWING
LOGS
Back in the summer of 1976 Kathy
Peteroff her husband Pete and their relatives Nick and Winnie Pitka,
went logging up around Paimiut Slough. The day started off good. The
water was calm, the sun was shining--a perfect day for a boat ride.
They left their camp before noon on their way to Paimuit. When they
got there they stopped and had lunch then proceeded into the slough
to find and add logs to the rafts that Pete had started a few days
earlier. All the work took place in the slough, and it wasn't hard
just roping the logs, towing them, and tieing each of them to a raft.
It took them most of the day, and they finally got done around seven
o'clock in the evening when they started back to their camp with the
rafts in tow. As they neared the mouth of the slough Pete noticed
that the wind had picked up. He figured that it would be a lot
rougher on the river, and it was. The wind was so strong it shaped
the waves into sharp edges before they broke. There was nothing for
them to do but wait out the storm. Even though since they had only
very little food left, it wouldn't be much fun, but it was too windy
and Pete decided they would stay overnight inside the slough and
leave the next morning.
When they woke up in the morning the
sun was shining but the wind was still blowing. So they decided to
leave their rafts and make the trip home without them. When they got
to the river they noticed that it had calmed down a little. As they
rode along the waves gradually calmed down, and except for the
beginning of the trip the ride home was enjoyable. The next day the
rafts were picked up and towed home in calm weather.
