Took the boys for a cruise up 20mile today and came across a damn gray whale about a mile upriver. I’ve seen belugas even farther up, but this was a first for me!



That boys seriously addicted to hooligan grin

Anchorage Pravda has an article on the whale possibly being stranded up the river.

IIRC, if it does get back down to Turnagain Arm, it still needs a very favorable tide to get back into
Cook Inlet proper. You guys may have a hell of a bear bait!

Hope it finds its way out. Should strip off a lot of it's parasites. Bears could eat for month if it doesn't. Neat to see.
We had one last spring just around the corner in Placer...

How did you put the boat in the Hoolignan, (Hooligans), have had launch blocked every time I drive by?
Someone put the sign back up to not block the launch... if you like to thread needles...

No doubt! When I was trying to pull my boat I had to get a bit testy with a couple of dipnetters that didn’t want to lose their prime parking spot. Thankfully they were at their vehicles when I pulled up.
