Notes from an Accidental Naturalist. Notes on life as an Alaskan tour guide, from someone who never thought she would actually be doing this for a living. Tuesday, July 17, 2012. Floating Zombie River Otters. Idea, after all – and we finished the rest of the tour without incident. I left one of the other guides to put my boat away, and immediately went to shower and wash my clothes. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Alaska, United States. An Alaskan resident, and semi-nomadic tour guide.

Notes from an Accidental Naturalist. Notes on life as an Alaskan tour guide, from someone who never thought she would actually be doing this for a living. Monday, December 10, 2012. Things They Don't Tell You About Winter in Alaska. You already knew about the months of limited daylight, the sub-zero windchill, and the 8-10 feet of snow. Here's what they don't tell you about winter in the 49th state. Resurrection Bay, Seward. Doorknobs, pets, children, iPods…. Your car needs winter gear, too - except gear...

Notes from an Accidental Naturalist. Notes on life as an Alaskan tour guide, from someone who never thought she would actually be doing this for a living. Saturday, June 16, 2012. Pissed-Off Loons and Porcupine Renovations. It’s the middle of June, only a week until the solstice, and we are still running our main glacier hiking trip as a snowshoeing outing. We’re more or less creating an ad hoc snowshoe trail out of some snow-covered creek drainages. I am anticipating a bleak period where the snow is too...

Notes from an Accidental Naturalist. Notes on life as an Alaskan tour guide, from someone who never thought she would actually be doing this for a living. Sunday, January 12, 2014. For most of November and December of this winter, I’ve been in West Virginia, and back working at the Wine Shop as a way to make some extra money while still staying close enough to help out my mother recover from her hip replacement last month. And it’s mutual. Mostly.). Earlier in December, I went on break, and sat down at a...

The Mountains Are Calling and I Must Go.: Oregon: A State In Review
http://imhikingrightnow.blogspot.com/2012/08/oregon-state-in-review.html
The Mountains Are Calling and I Must Go. Wednesday, August 29, 2012. Oregon: A State In Review. Again, I resort to my boring ol' tactic of writing a list of unrelated incidents that you may piece together however you would like to get an idea of what my hike is like! At least this one might have photos. Only a few short days out of Ashland, we came across the place that I had been looking forward to the most on this trip: Crater Lake! One of the more memorable days on trail, to say the least. The last 15...

Notes from an Accidental Naturalist: August 2012
http://notesfromanaccidentalnaturalist.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Notes from an Accidental Naturalist. Notes on life as an Alaskan tour guide, from someone who never thought she would actually be doing this for a living. Friday, August 31, 2012. Last week I ended up going to Seward to get a tooth looked at, which fortunately turned out to be fine. I was in town for just over 16 hours, and went back to the Iceberg Lodge a day early because of the atrocious marine forecast for the following day. Also, those winds speeds are enough to turn ordinary beach sand into weaponi...

Notes from an Accidental Naturalist: Adventures in Alaskan Car Ownership

Notes from an Accidental Naturalist. Notes on life as an Alaskan tour guide, from someone who never thought she would actually be doing this for a living. Thursday, February 20, 2014. Adventures in Alaskan Car Ownership. I am back in Alaska, after having been gone for most of the winter. Alaska, the hussy that she is, welcomed me back with a nasty head cold, negative windchill, and a broken-down car. Missed you, too. Maybe I should have stayed away longer. Looking north across the frozen Kenai Lake.

Karl's Pacific Crest Trail Thru-hike 2012. Care Packages and Letters. Northern Oregon forests were thick and lush. After a fire detour I climbed up and around amazing Mt. Hood. Hikers and tourists alike filled the restaurant at timberline lodge for the notorious breakfast buffet. Then we hung out at the amazing lodge into the afternoon. Who I hadn't seen since Etna, CA. Oasis and Honey Bear were close behind and the crew I hiked Northern Ca with were reunited. Latest photos (see new album for more).
