Annual Bald Eagle Gathering, Haines, Alaska

 

 



We were off for an adventure of a different nature in early November, 2012.










Nov. 2nd found us in

Juneua, AK...where there was beaufiful snowfall.

We spent over 4 hours exploring the

Mendenhall Glacier.

Sunday, the 4th we drove our 4 wheel drive
vehicle onto the Alaska Ferry and headed towards
Haines and the thousands of eagles that had been
gathering there since September.

 

 

We traveled into the Canadian Yukon

and braved temperatures of -5 degrees.

 

 

 

We saw the most beautiful coyote

just across road from us.

We stayed at Mosquito Lake about
27 miles outside of Haines and were
treated to the spectacular
Northern Lights every night.











We experienced the gathering of thousands
of eagles who gather every year along the
Chilkat River to feast on a late salmon run.

We even made the local paper.
