Chilkoot Lake
Bald Eagle Fledging in nest – Chilkoot River
We booked the ferry to Juneau which leaves at 4pm so we spent the day driving around Haines and out Lutak Rd, along the Chilkoot River, to Chilkoot Lake. Saw a nest with a Bald Eagle fledging with a concerned parent looking on from another tree.
And Watchful Parent
A Determined Fishergirl at Chilkoot Lake
At the lake watched a very determined young girl fishing for salmon; she didn’t catch anything but it didn’t seem to dampen her fun.The sky was sunny and the Lynn Canal quite calm as we left Haines and the ride down to Juneau was quite pleasant. After a few wrong turns, leaving the Juneau ferry terminal, we finally pulled in to the Spruce Meadow RV Park about 11 pm.
