From Baja to Anchorage, what a change!

I just made it from Mexico’s Wild Coast in Baja to Anchorage. I’ve been here with Florian since Wednesday last week and I have to say, what a change! I do miss the warmth and turqoise waters of Baja, but I find it so beautiful to see how the summer has truly arrived to southern Alaska. Florian spent some time in Point Hope earlier this month. He tells me temperatures up there where still quite freezing, one can tell from his pictures in Facebook. So I am glad we are going to stick around in the southern part for a while, this way I can get more in tune with the nordic climate, again.

Today is my first aerial expedition with Florian along the southern Alaskan coast, towards King Salmon overflying Lake Illiamna. This is the location of the planned Pebble Mine that we need to document to included it on the Freedom to Roam project. Which is threatening the biggest native salmon stock in the world.
