We made our 7 day trip to Alaska safe and sound and had some amazing experiences along the way. The scenery was beautiful, the kids did great for being in the car for so long, and besides our back window getting shattered by a rock, everything went very smooth. The tahoe went without a back window for 2 days so Jason had to sleep in it to prevent theft. He had to scare away two different people three different times in the middle of the night in Whitehorse, Yukon Territory, Canada. Glad he was in there so that we could keep our belongings, but not the best night's sleep for him.
We saw: black bears, big horn sheep, dahl sheep, deer, fox, buffalo, moose, carribou, and a linx
We went Salmon fishing on the Russian River where two Grizzley bears had been spotted just an hour before we arrived. It is a common occurance to see bears there and we came accross very large, fresh grizzley bear tracks (we took a picture of it with Hunter's hand inside of it). My dad and Jason each caught 2 and had a blast fishing. Parker learned how to fish for salmon as well and got his first pair of waders.
We are excited about our new opportunities here in Alaska!!!
