"This is Greg in his camo, walking the riverside trail that we checked every day--- and no, humans did not make the trail; moose, bear and wolves did.
Another morning at camp. Then the fabled Brooks Mountain range in the distance about an hour or so away. And sunset on the range we are in, the Jack White range.
Lastly, Blueberry bushes everywhere, leaves have fallen, but berries still tasty and sweet.


The lodge of beavers on the pond where we camped. I told you that they were the big entertainment there, right???
The last area we hunted, isn't it a gorgeous pond ????
Me at the Arctic Circle campground! And hills just north of Fairbanks in autumn's glow.


I DO have more spectacular photos of our trip south, (read Mt. Denali in sunlight!!!). But will have to wait for another day, as I am weary from picking and cleaning gallons of lingon berries today , and must get ready to head to the island tomorrow to close things there.
Hope this is enjoyable for all of you.
Hugs, Lauri"

"We set up camp beside a beaver pond, and they entertained me the whole 10 days! The pond was a pretty thing too. Camp is a 10x14 wall tent, but obscured by the tarps covering it, and tarps out in front to store our gear.


Simply exquisite country and no amount of photos will give you the thrill of being there, but this is the next best thing, yes? The last one is morning from the camp, as it was when I sat outside with my cup of coffee and made a little campfire to keep warm!"
