Monday: Going to EXIT GLACIER and Bear Lake Salmon weir...Hiking 3 miles...
EXIT GLACIER part of the Harding Icefields in the KENAI MOUNTAINS
It received its name because it served as the exit for the first recorded crossing of the Harding Icefield in 1968.
Yep--road construction
Hike up the mountain through the woods
Any Bears?
Happy Hiker..She's got her boots!
View look down the valley
Awesome!
Up we go
The toe of the glacier was here in 1998
Another Happy Hiker
IT'S ALL DOWN FROM HERE
Stopped by Bear Lake fish wier, where they are counting the Sockeye Salmon going up stream
Here they are seperating the male and females, injecting the females with antibiotics and tagging.
After recovery, the salmon swim up stream to spawn--some were turning red.
