The Upper Delta River

Becky and I just got back from a three day canoe trip on the Upper Delta River which cuts through the Alaska Range. We were joined by our good friends Garret and Brenda. I'm not even going to try and describe stunningly beautiful it was.We only had to get out and drag the canoes through shallows a few times to go from one lake to the other.

Tangle Lakes

The start of the river is about a mile around the corner. At this camp we stayed up until 2am one morning watching four moose graze on the vegetation on the bottom of the lake. Head under water for a few seconds. Head out with grass. Head back under. Come up with more grass.... It was very entertaining. One of the cows had two calves that would swim out behind her while she walked on the bottom.

Ahhhhhh.........
