What peak are we looking at?
Chiganagik (I think that’s how it’s spelled)…it’s a volcano that has a active vent about a 1/4 down from the summit

if u are going to pay, to fly beer into a remote place, i might vote for some good pnw or other west coast beers....
That was for the staff…I’ve been drinking local IPA’s the whole trip
That does look fun as hell. I made it out that way once, spent a week out near the end of the Alaska Peninsula, fishing in September, and caught silvers until my arm was sore. I even lucked into a Bering Sea drainage steelhead. Amazing country that had me nearly constantly in awe. Quite a few times I had to just stop fishing and observe, take photos, etc. Just take it all in, really breathe it in deeply. I also recall on my birthday in the pouring rain hooking and losing, in a row, the same number of fish as the number of years I was turning. (It was 30 something) It didn’t matter though, it was hilarious to me, there were just so many fish I knew the streak would end but how long could I keep it going? I reeled up for the day when I hit the number.

These fish are amazing.
I was under the aleutian the the islands were very mountainous, where you were appears to be very flat, very interesting.
Great trip and thanks for bringing us along!!
