Jackie and Pat's Alaska. Wednesday, June 17, 2015. Icefield Adventures, meet Matilda and start to the fishing/boat season. It has been a busy past couple of months, including stretches of incredible weather. The month of May was almost entirely sunny, with temperatures nearing 75 on a daily basis. Juneau was actually happy to have a week off from sun to re-hydrate everything and give folks a chance to catch up on house work and laundry. Nobody does chores when it is sunny in the mountains! We also flew o...

Jackie and Pat's Alaska. Friday, June 14, 2013. Spring is finally here. Spring finally broke Mid-May and we really haven't had a lack of sun.

Jackie and our friend Bri took a 5 day trip to visit Bri's home town of Cordova over Jackie's birthday. Nice weather, eh? Bri boarding the plane! The flight to Cordova. View on the way to CDV.

Jackie and Pat's Alaska. Friday, June 29, 2012. Fishing in Icy Straight/Couverden. Leaving Juneau headed for Couverden. Halibut fishing in Icy Straight. Barley enjoying the view of Chichagof Island and Icy Straight. Our first shrimp pot we pulled had some decent size spot prawns. The view from Swanson Harbor. Swanson Harbor has floating moorage but no land access. We brought along our zodiac to go to shore to cook dinner and walk barley. Notice the floating docks in the background. Jackie and her prawns.

Jackie and Pat's Alaska: July 2013
http://jackieandpatalaska.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Jackie and Pat's Alaska. Monday, July 8, 2013. Again, we had 85 plus degree weather and sunny, blue skies, making it a hot trip! Bagging up herring for crab bait before the trip. Four Mountain bikes loaded up for the trip- plenty of space! The Eight Fathom Bight cabin. It was built by Icy Straights in Hoonah and barged to the site. It is by far the nicest Forest Service cabin out there, and almost as big as our house! This is Jackie attempting to avoid her face getting eaten. Enjoyed a beautiful sunset.

Jackie and Pat's Alaska. Wednesday, January 25, 2012. Jackie and Barley Nordic Ski at the Glacier. Barley and I spent last Saturday afternoon/evening skiing out at the Mendenhall Glacier. Following a week of single digit temperatures, the lake finally froze solid and fresh snow dropped Friday night. After 5 hours of powder skiing at the mountain, we decided to head out to the glacier and give Barley some exercise. Fresh powder nordic skiing. Afternoon sun shining on the glacier. Looking back on the lake.

The Fairweather Range frames the northwest section of Cross Sound. Time to st...

Jackie and Pat's Alaska. Thursday, March 5, 2015. Sure has been a fast moving past couple of years.about time I get this thing updated.

I am still battling with a bout of depression after the Packer vs. Seahawks playoff game, but I am already looking forward to next season! Here's to Rodgers winning MVP :). Here is a little bit of what we have been up to the past couple years (or at least the easiest accessible photos that I have):. Of cou...

Jackie and Pat's Alaska. Thursday, January 20, 2011. The weather has changed now in Juneau. The winds have died down and the snow has started falling. Last night the forecast called for 5-10" of snow. I would say we got close to 16" of snow. The picture below is our Weber grill when we went to bed last night. Before this storm there was no snow on the grill or on the ground around the grill. Yesterday we went for a walk on the Steep Creek trails at the Mendenhall Glacier. Here are some pictures. Still wi...
