Tok, Alaska .... It Feels Like Fall
« on: August 14, 2015, 01:16:00 AM »
Greetings from Tok! I've been all around the south end of Alaska the last several days and the weather has been superb. Now my wife and I are in Tok as I near the time for caribou in the mountains. Coming up the Richardson Higway I noticed some early fall color in the high country. Moose and caribou are still in velvet. Yesterday we saw a low temp of 33 F in the Chugach. It all combines to quicken the pulse a little and make me long for a leather grip in my bow hand.

Dinner at Fast Eddies and a night in a quiet cabin. Just a few more days until the Cub flies and hopefully so does an arrow.

Excellent!  I must have missed it - hadn't realized you were hunting caribou this year.  Are you then going back up for more next month again?  Either way, what a great way to start the best season of the year!  Good luck, I'll be watching for details to follow!
