Both of those boy pics are Kody. Levi was too little before we moved. That pic of him with that Silver is the same property they are at right now though.

Slow day with it nonstop raining. Everyone was over it without dad being the fire. They're almost back to the house now.

Nice pile, Silvers? Took my kids twice in the mid 90's over the summer solstice when they were growing up.... still feel the pull to return.
Very excellent @giles - First time I went was before the internet- solo as it was a work trip to Shemya (where they bent the International Date Line) when I went - bought a magazine at Elmendorph "Road Fishing Alaska" and rented camping gear from FT Richie, LoL carried my fishing gear on board. My fav spot was the confluence of the Russian and Kenai - usually 0200 - 0500 many times just me and couple other knuckle heads that wanted to be there away from the crowds.
Good for you Giles and Fam! Just found this thread and ya man brings back dusty gray memories - had to go look in my "Ol'Timey" directory... smile -
Your kiddos will remember these times.... and you.
About three mile hike up the Russian, Mrs, Sierra, Zak and I. Had the spot all to ourselves - thanks man - OLD memories; Good LUCK!
Good shot of the Mrs. ... before digital cams -

Reds, still way early for silvers. Confluence should be open, I haven't looked though. The Russian is a good spot but the fish are freshest down by Soldotna. You can still see the sea lice on most of those pics.
They ain't been sending me anything. I did hear that the fish box weighed 50#!
They are hiking Butte right now. I kinda jumped them a bit for not doing anything the last week.
No, it was to far away.
I'm sure FB and her friends have been flooded with pics.

BTW, this is a view in all directions. Just a giant rock in the middle of a flat. Never looked in to what caused it. Guessing it originated from that glacier in that one picture.
Hiking the Butte
The Butte gives visitors a spectacular view of the Chugach Mountains and the Matanuska Valley.
