Last August I was in Alaska with Troop 400 of Pacific Palisades, CA. It was a great trip, here are a couple of shots.

Regards,

Gary

    Great photos. Reminds me of the time I spent 8 months in the Yukon. I love the North.

    We flew into Anchorage. Granite Creek - where we camped for two days was about 1 1/2 - 2 hours away, then we went to Seward where we stayed at a campground right on the water.

    Thanks very much, you'll love it. I also like the last shot. We passed that vantage point right before we stopped for gas. I got out of the car and ran back up the road - I thought it was a great view.

    I've been in the Yukon twice, quite a place. I was up there with a group of guys I do an outdoor trip with every year. Last time (2 years ago) we canoed down the Yukon to Lake Lebarge. What a trip.

    #1 seems a bit hazy in the distance. Maybe it's just my monitor.

    #3 is very good.

    # 4 is Excellent. Looks very enticing and mysterious!

    It was hazy - morning was kind of misty. Thanks for the comments. I am still going through the shots from the trip.

    Thanks for sharing these, Gary. As I wrote in a reply to Prezwoods, I love to see images of Alaska. It looks like a remarkable place to be, and I hope I'll see it in person some day.
    enjoy being here while getting there

    My pleasure! Thanks for your comments. Make sure you make the trip - it is a special place (as is your country - my parents took me to Europe when I was in High School 40+ years ago. We did get to Amsterdam.).

    regards,

    Gary
