I’ve been out boring some holes in the sky this week and managed to get a couple of cool shots. The weather has been mild and calm for several days and with the daylight slowly returning to the North there is a distant hope of warmer temperatures in the approaching months. We spotted a couple of wolves sunning themselves on the summit of a small knoll totally unbothered by the Super Cub. There was a band of about 12 sheep lingering in the cliffs just 100 yards away, but everybody seemed rather at ease with the situation. If you look close in the last photo you can see the wolves ontop of the peak with the sheep lingering just above the cliffs below. We also saw a beautiful lynx from the air yesterday which was an awesome sight!
I hope to be posting photos more regularily in the weeks ahead, I apologize for the long pause in blog activity … I have a good reason for it, but I am not going to go into the details today … maybe later.
Matt, so good to get your post; we’d been a little worried. That wilderness thing can ‘bite.’ Glad you’re still good. Now, post some stuff for us vicarious flat landers that depend on you, when you have the time, of course. Drew
Hahaha, thanks so much for your concern Drew. It is probably well deserve, because yes, Alaska’s wilderness is certainly capable of “biting” hard.
