ruttinbuc Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 While in Alaska I got to know Crescent Lake very well. I was like a water taxi going back and forth for information, supplies and ferrying people to and from the meeting points near the trail head. My first trip was riding back from the other end of the lake after dropping Kirk and Terry at their spike camp. It was an hour ride with three of us in the boat. Forty-five minutes with just me. I had to go check up with them the next day and then had to go pick up the girls the day after. After dropping them off at the Saddle Cabin I had to take the other boat and use it as a barge to move the gear from one cabin to the other. Turned into a long night. I put Norm and too_ in the boat with me while loading the gear in the second boat. For whatever reason there are no pictures of the loaded craft. I have not found any. Put it that way. Also used the boat to look for bears and to do some fishing. I rowed most of the time for that to conserve fuel. Those grayling were fun. Here is a little video of my long travels. The lake is at least 7 miles long if not more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruttinbuc Posted September 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 Glad you all liked the clip. It is a special place up there for sure! Can never get tired of running up and down that lake and taking in that view. Cool clip Mike. Think Catrina still has some video clips and pics she wants to post, just has not gotten a chance to yet. Yes, there were quite a few pictures and clips taken. I think Kathleen has a ton of stuff. Was wondering if she is going to post anymore than what she has. Anyone hear how she is doing with her sheep hunt? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adjam5 Posted September 15, 2009 Report Share Posted September 15, 2009 Such a peaceful place Mike...thanks for sharing it with us:). I gotta get up there one day... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 Think we may also put a slideshow together, still need to load pics onto a dvd for Christina to take to school, and we still need to pick out the pics they want to have printed. Anyone ever use photobuckets or any of the other online printing services? Yes, there were quite a few pictures and clips taken. I think Kathleen has a ton of stuff. Was wondering if she is going to post anymore than what she has. Anyone hear how she is doing with her sheep hunt? I have a pm to Kathleen that has been unanswered Mike. Catrina was going to call her the other day but she never did, probably will give her a call this weekend. Hope everything is going well for them.
