A Few New Pics

New 'Pic of the Week!'

Sorry for my absence, I have been quite busy finishing up school and starting a new job.  Not to worry though, I have still been snapping pictures as my adventures continue to take me into some beautiful terrain.  There's a couple new 'Pics of the Week' and I will get some photos up ASAP from my recent wanderings.

Enjoy!

Early Season in Alaska

Friends enjoying the deep snowpack in Turnagain Pass
The Alaskan winter season is in full swing as we approach the Thanksgiving holiday.  We have seen a tremendous mix of conditions in the last few weeks of skiing.

The Drive Home

Wilson, Wyoming
This past Spring I had the opportunity to drive back to Alaska from where I was living in Wyoming.  I had done the drive north many times before, but I hadn't had the chance to come this far east.  I was always commuting from Reno and, therefor, stuck to the West Coast until I hit the Alaska Highway.  This easterly route gave me the chance to explore both Montana and Northern Idaho as well as meet up with friends in Red Mountain, British Columbia.  The journey began with my departure from Wilson and a beautiful, blue bird day at Grand Targhee.  I spent the day making turns and basking in the sunshine.  Once I had my fill of Targhee, I hit the road north and sped through Eastern Idaho and Montana.  The following day I hit up Lookout Pass, a little place on the Idaho/Montana border.  It was just the experience I was looking for.  Totally empty, the tiny hill seemed much larger when every run was your own.  I enjoyed my day of shredding groomers, had a beer at the bar afterward and continued down the highway toward my next destination.

Fishin' for 'Bows!

Jody on the Kenai

It must be September again.  There's a chill in the air, the leaves are changing and Rainbow Trout are in full swing down on the Kenai!  I managed to get myself in on a couple different trips this year and both proved to be worthwhile.
