Wrangell

June 27, Thursday

Our first night in Wrangell we saw more than thirty small boats with adults, children and dogs leaving the harbor. We thought that they were going for a family outing because the weather was so nice. The harbormaster’s assistant set us straight, they were going out to practice for the big boat race on July 4th.

June 28, Saturday -We love watching the birds. This morning we had two blue heron and a juvenile eagle on the breakwater to entertain us.

Dock Ramp: Must be low tide.

Looking North, the sunset turned the sky a beautiful pink color.
Finally, got a Bear Picture! If we are lucky we will soon see the real thing.

Friday evening, families started leaving in their boats to go to their cabins on the Stikine River. We must have seen at least 20 of these skiffs leave the marina.

Triva: The Stikine River is known as the “fastest-flowing navigable river in North America.

June 29, Saturday – This morning it was the ravens and eagles that entertained us.
