Uncle Al's Summer Vacation:Uncle Al's Summer Vacation
Alvin Owletuck Jr's summer vacation was about the same as every other summer. He went logging below Vernon Evan's fish camp for two days in a row so he could get plenty of firewood. After that he went spring camping at Owl Slough with Victor Shorty, Chris Fitka, Moses Duny, Willie Duny Jr. and his brother Robert. He also went subsistence fishing with Matthew, his nephew, so his mom and sisters could smoke dry fish for the winter. When commercial fishing started on the 11th of June he fished with his nephew and helper, Matt. Alvin said, "I thought fishing was boring because the price of Kings and chums was low." In mid-July he brought Pal, Grace, Annie, me and his sisters berry picking at Willow. He also went rod and reeling with his friends on Wilson and Willow creeks as well as at Kuik Lake and back on the Kuyukutuk River. He also went bear hunting at Nooksook, which is in Owl Slough, with his brother George, Wes Pitka and Jerry Boliver. Told by: Alvin Owletuck Jr. Interviewed by: Olga Moxie ![]() | |
