So, I’ve been super delayed in posting, so you’ll have to forgive me for being out and about and too busy at work!!!

My sister, Erin, was in town for a week at the end of July . . . we killed silvers on a charter in Seward, hung out in Cooper Landing, and spent a day in good old Girdwood . . . it was actually pretty fun!

Hanging by the lake – roadside “nature mcnugget” 🙂

One of many bike trails in Cooper Landing takes you to Russian River Falls where you can watch the sundry of the famous Russian River reds come upstream . . . I’m not a huge fishing/fish fan, but you’ve got to admit it’s pretty impressive to watch these creatures swim upstream. The trail actually goes for 21 miles of singletrack, but the falls are only 3 miles from the trailhead.

The falls We also had the chance to float the Kenai River and fish for trout and dolly varden . . . floating the Kenai is a super great experience, especially on the upper river where there’s no developments and no motors! Other people chose the more combat style red fishing . . . classic Kenai 🙂

Overall, we had a great trip, and it was fun to show Erin around a small piece of Alaska!
