Mt. Eyak


     Whilst in Cordova, we spent a lazy Sunday summiting a mountain. No big deal. Some photos [taken with my fancy camera or Jessyka and Johan's fancy camera] from Ms. Harper and my first trip to the summit of Mt. Eyak!

Fungus!
Oldest single-seat chair lift in the US!


This was the trail.
Avalanche Trail from two winters ago!
Road to the airport and glacier!







the following photos were taken by my fellow mountaineers!

coming home

     So I got home late Tuesday night [or really, morning] from that 49th state, so I must apologize again for not having all my photos organized into posts. But in due time, my friends. In due time. Until then, insti photos from my short [Cordova-Anchorage-Seattle-San Francisco-Santa Clara] trip home!!

Sport fish getting loaded on the plane in Anchorage!
Stuck on the tarmac in Seattle, on account of the rain
[and lightning].
Night lights of the bay.
Very nice to come home to a package!
And I came home to three :]]]
[one not pictured]
Because this is a healthy obsession I should continue to fuel.
And I finally got to see these suckers in action at night!

laska

     Currently in the last frontier visiting my sister Jessyka [of Let's Talk About Beer], her husband Jonah and their little firecracker of an almost one year-old, Miss Harper. Oh and my brother Will, who came up to visit them this past spring and never went home! I have alotta photos both from my phone and from my actual, fancy camera, that I'll post once I get back to those hot, sticky final days of summer in Santa Clara. But until then, some instagram photos!!
