Lone Cabin – near Old Cannery, Hood Bay, Alaska

Our man in Juneau, AK,  Robert J Maass is back in action. He writes in his Log:

Jerry Just got back from most amazing expedition to Admiralty island 10 days of Hunting fishing and taking pictures ,wait till you see a place called Hood Bay you will not believe.  This is a cabin left from old cannery built right in Tongass National Forest. The most amazing forest in this area. Lots of Virgin Forest for hundreds of miles. Creeks and rivers every 8th mile.

A lot of people think you can’t enjoy Alaska in winter. I beg to differ! Alaska’s Southeast interior, the Chatham Straits very habitable in January. In the 30s the whole time. When we were there it was a bit of a warm spell, notice the ice still on the water.

Robert sent me a half dozen of his favorite photographs from his latest trip. I will feature them over the next week or so…
