Todays hike

[Richard Flanders]

Went on a short hike today to work the kinks out of a troublesome knee. This is an 18minute flite south of Fairbanks and a place I fly to a lot. I was scrambling across the beaver dam to get to the other side so I could climb the hill and there was a nice little Bullwinkle grazing in the beaver pond. I tried fishing for grayling but they must be upstream spawning. Hiked up onto the hill and had some good views. I love this spot. Unfortunately, the peregrine nest is not occupied this year.

What an office you have

Alaska is one of three states I have yet to visit.... Beautiful, you are very lucky to live in a place like that.

[Harry Collins]

Beautiful! I'm curious about little Bullwinkle. Did he run off with Rocky or stay put while you were hiking?

[Richard Flanders]

He watched me stumble across the beaver dam for a bit then eventually went across the pond and into the woods for a bit then came back into the pond once I was across and up the hill a ways. You can see him in the third picture taken from up on the hill. I think Rocky stayed out of sight...

[Harry Collins]

Yes! I see him. He's oblivious to you.
