I'm leaving Monday and am packing no food other than salt and pepper. I'll be on the coast of SE Alaska. I won't be hunting until each of the various seasons open. Before hunting season opens it will be mostly fishing, crabbing and berry picking with some other misc. plants mixed in for variety. Anyway, the planning is done and it's time to get out there. You can check out my plans and gear list and [b][u]find a link to my journal here[/u][/b]. I should be able to get data coverage in certain areas to update my journal. Please check it out!

What part of SE? Good luck. Weather has sucked so far this year. Mostly if not all Admiralty Island, Calvin. When I did my Alaska traverse the old Eskimos said it was the rainiest summer in their memory, so I wouldn't be surprised to get record rains when I'm there.  Whereabouts are you? I am out of my ecosystem down there so there will be a learning curve, I'm sure.

I'm dropping my son and his buddy off at Olivers Inlet on Sunday. They are going to paddle down Seymour Canal, do the Mole Hrbr to Mitchell Bay portage and paddle back to town. I think they're trying to do it in a week. Andrew's got reddish hair and a reddish beard (in case you run into them).

I hope it's as awesome as the last one!
I would not buy something that runs on any kind of primer given the possibility of primer shortages and even regulations. In fact, why not buy a flintlock? Really. Rocks aren't going away anytime soon.

Buck thank god I got to post before you left. Do not consider going into the woods without a cAse of Tabasco. Kills bacteria, tastes great, good for you and I had raw clams with Tabasco last week and would have made a great last meal. I would take coffee too, oh and medicinal scotch. Instead of salt and pepper, lemon Pepper for all the rockfish. Great trip, have fun!
