Coopers Landing and Kenai are pretty cool. Sockeye fishing should still be happening at the kenai/Russian confluence. If you go that way and want to see the ocean drive to Homer. Aka “the spit”. Very cool, have fun.

We fish Friday through Wednesday at Tower Rock Lodge on the Kenai.

Hit Whittier on the way to Seward if you have time. One way tunnel (inbound every hour on the half hour, outbound every hour on the hour). Don’t need much time to see it all, but definitely worth a stop.

In Seward, eat at Rays. Get there early, gets crowded and there will be. Along wait. Also, short hike to exit glacier just outside of town.

We just got back Sunday, had a great time.

In. Dream trip.


My wife told me that Alaska had an 8.2 earthquake

8.2 around the Aleutian Islands. It says it’s 684 miles away but I suspect you still felt 8.2. Hope all is well and enjoy the trip.

We were in Kodiak and down on the Kenai Peninsula last week and read several warning signs about earthquakes and tsunamis...basically, they all said to get to an elevation of 50' or higher after a quake in case of tsunami. Slightly disconcerting, but I don't think it's a very common issue.

We slept through it. Never felt a thing.
