I found this photo from a previous post. The following series of shots were taken from the same spot as this photo of Great Sitkin Volcano, Fall 2009.

9 shot panorama of the town of Adak looking from

Northeast of town to (left side of photo) to Southeast (right side photo).

This view displays the South face of Great Sitkin Mountain which lies beyond Kuluk Bay. Kuluk Bay has a nice long beach-line with multiple entrance points which always seem to make for a memorable walk. The southern part of the bay lines the town of Adak then sweeps down in to Adak Harbor with the Red, White and Blue (Sheds). Finally, Sweeper Cove is where the small boat harbor is.

14 shot panoramic taken March 29. its still not the best stitch job. but I'm improving my technique each time. Its very difficult to take the right photos of a beach that's nearly a mile long with waves and contrasting colors due to shadows and such. though still not nearly perfect, a pretty decent photo i think.

This photo was taken summer of 2009. I don't think there is a name for this log bridge at a creek that is fed from Lake Betty to Finger Bay. I'll go back this summer to take a photo that portrays the width of the bridge.

Candle Stick Bridge

Zeto Point is the land mass to the left. A.K.A. Rhino Point. There was a negative tide this day which is nice for beach combing.

Alaska Railroad in Whittier

Have fun making snowflakes!!

Whittier, Alaska. Part of the northernmost rainforest, averages over 400"of rain and 0ver 200" of snow each year. Surrounded by glaciers, gorgeous views and small town living. Below are pics from "my backyard" for the next 2 weeks. I'm staying at the tippy top of the 15 story Begich Towers. This building is home to a majority of the Whitter residents, as well as the Post Office, Police Dept, City Offices, a store and the Whittier Medical Clinic. Look here for a webcam from a resident's 14th floor apartment.

Birds of Adak Island.

It's that time of year when new birds arrive and the year-rounders are easily seen.

Bald Eagle, sitting in the morning sun...

...until an un-stealthy Chris scares it away.

Gorgeous weather yesterday provided flat calm water in the harbour.

Ptarmigan are shedding their white feathers.
