ShoreZone
January 11, 2012
South Guibert Islet (downloaded from Alaska ShoreZone) Today someone on Facebook shared a link to the NOAA ShoreZone Press Release announcing all of Southeast Alaska had been imaged for the ShoreZone project.

Snow Hikes

We got up to fairly heavy snow showers, but Connor, Rowan, and I went on a couple of hikes anyway. All the pictures are from those trips. Read more about the outings at my trails blog.
Indian River Trail
January 11, 2015

After finishing up my radio show for tomorrow shortly after noon, I stopped at the channel. For some reason the scaups were right
