Does not quite look like boating weather eh! but what the
heck, these boats are tough, we will just have to chainsaw
out a path in the ice.

Whittier Tunnel, we were the only boat heading through,
looks like we get the whole play ground to our
selves.
|
Joined by the "Red Fox" pirate of Prince William Sound
himself.
|
Speaking of pirates, here is my little swabby and pirate in
the making... ARGH!
|
Just the way the ocean always is, flat and calm - well o.k.,
not always, but it mostly was on this trip.
|
Pirate sticks (Caribou Sausages) and veggies makes a pirate
have energy.
|
Read fox stretching his legs.
|
And you thought I was kidding about cutting our way through
ice - yikes - I never thought I would be driving into
ice.
|
Fist time my boat has seen dry land, sort of like a new car,
you hate to get that first scratch, so I have been anchoring
about a mile away and dingying my way in. You want to have a
nice beach for doing this though and watch the boat so you
do not go dry.
|
|
The main event, there is nothing like shore time, especially
a good fire and a juicy smore.
|
|
A beautiful sunrise at our first anchorage, I would tell you
where we are at, but these are secret pirate
grounds.
|
|
Just the right size eh!
|
Where are the fish. Caleb said on the way home - "I want to
go to the other dock's, these fish are not interested in
me"
|
At the helm
|
|
Beautiful waterfalls all over PWS
|
|
|
to fine looking boats resting gently on anchor.
|
trying out my new kicker bracket, I have a 5 hp for trolling
and it pushed the boat great.
|
|
Looking for treasures on the shore, we find all kinds of
goodies.
|
A great fire in Culross Bay.
|
Driving all by him self, he will be able to run a boat well
before he is able to drive a car.
|
|
Ziegler Cove on the edge of pigot bay - super nice beach and
good anchorage, although we got tossed around quite a bit at
night with swells coming in.
