PART 2
We had an amazing time in Alaska. The breathtaking beauty of the place was elevated by some amazing weather throughout our stay. We flew in on a Friday(July 28, 2023) to the Anchorage Airport. On our third day, we did an exclusive day of fishing. By that time most of us in the group learned how to do flossing for Sockeye Salmon. While in the river we just forgot the beats of time. Most days we came home late and had to do some quick cooking. Even then the food was really tasty, courtesy of the fresh Salmon catch of the day. The day time during summer times in Alaska was long that even there was some light during midnight.
The next day, we did a hike to the Russian River Falls. The salmon were just beginning to reach the confluence from the ocean. Still there were a lot of them, a lot of them spawned out. The drone footage captured some fantastic views of the area. It was a marvel to see the salmon go past the gushing waterfalls in which we struggled to just put our foot in. It was a true magic of nature. Also we just missed some bears feeding on the Salmon. Altogether it was truly wonderful hike..
Will continue with a video of our adventure for the next few days. STAY TUNED...
