Morning Cloud

Yesterday, just before I boarded a shuttle from the hotel to the airport, I noticed this cloud formation in the morning sky. (Anchorage, Alaska)

Wolf On Rope

I've been remiss on posting photos from the Eagle Totem Pole Raising at University of Alaska-Southeast in Juneau last Saturday. Ah, traveling...

Anyway, here we see a wolf manning a rope during the pole raising.

Darn Dog!

You gotta love this guy! Hydaburg, Alaska...

Gnarly Buoy

Remember to have enough line on your crab pots. This buoy must have been in or under water a long time to allow this build-up of crud. We saw it during a minus tide (especially low tide) and at high tide it went back under water. We will pull it up, since crab pots should not be left in the water forever.

Frog Memorial

This afternoon at Kasaan Totem Park...we see the memorial totem pole with a frog on one side and an eagle nest depicted on top.

In the background, through the trees to the right of the frog totem a bit below the frog figure, we get a peek of Naay I'waans (Great House or Chief Son-i-Hat Whale House). To the left of the frog pole, we see the totem pole which stands in front of the Whale House.
