Bringing the band in for Seldovia Arts Council!!

UPDATE! SHE IS OK!
She found her own way to safety. Fortunately she was very capable & self-sufficient. She unknowingly was following State Park Maps that show trails that no longer exist and nobody informed her that her hiking plans were not possible without a raft. NOTE: the Woznesenski River trail no longer exists because an overflow channel of the Woz blocks the trail about 3 miles up from Haystack rock, so the entire trail has grown in and disappears between the glacier and this 3 mi point. Nobody informed her that her plans would be impossible without a raft. She did not have a packraft and that is the only way to get down the Woznesenski valley from head of the valley that she accessed from the very sketchy trail from China P**t lake. When she realized there was no trail and could not hike out the glacier river drainage due to cliffs & high water, and was running out of food, she bush whacked up and over a mountain to China P**t bay and borrowed a canoe to paddle to the Kachemak bay Kachemak Bay Wilderness Lodge. State Park MAPS show trails that disappeared years ago. Always check trail reports and ask water taxis before following the maps. For now check the Friends trail descriptions here:

and for STATE PARK trail reports :

All of this sunshine and no snow has created a pretty unique set of great ice skating conditions out on the Grewingk Glacier Lake for this time of year. Mako's Water Taxi is open all winter and ready to get you out there!

I have been to this beach thousands of times in the past twelve years taking hikers to Grewingk Glacier. This was the first bull moose with a big beautiful rack of antlers seen there. He somehow knew the hunting season was over and walked around boldly, a master of all he surveyed. #wildlifetour #FallInAlaska #openallwinter #kachemakbay

Fall in Tutka Bay is such an incredible time. There’s a crisp chill in the air and the water becomes crystal clear. Dropping people off to hike Grace Ridge and to explore the Tutka Backdoor Trail gives us the opportunity to enjoy these places during our favorite time of year. You will likely have the entre place to yourself. Glorious Autumn! #openallwinter #graceridge #FallInAlaska
