We grew produce this summer to help offset high grocery costs. Bonus is parasite-free salads. Delicious with fresh caught sockeye salmon. #GrowYourOwnFood #FreshCatch #AlaskaSummer

It sounds like a tsunami alarm is going off and it has been going off for quite some time- anyone else hear it? I’m over off Artic and Dimond area. #anc

I’m on a small-ship Alaska cruise with my son; our boat rescued a stranded vessel last night and apparently we did that after the Coast Guard radioed Mark Zuckerberg’s yacht - which was closer - and they repeatedly refused to respond. (There was near unanimous booing when the captain announced this)

we have numerous communities in alaska that lack clean running water and even more communities with sinks that look like this elect someone who will fight for our communities more than they fight for oil & gas companies

Ongoing crisis in Northwest Arctic Borough. Outstanding reporting from Desiree Hagen at KOTZ, Kotzebue: "Ambler, a Northwest Arctic community of about 270 people, has been without water or sewer for more than five months." #Alaska #AlaskaSky @napaaqtuk.bsky.social www.kotz.org/kotz-local-n...

High atop the world. I want to see mountains again Gandalf. Mountains!

If you’ve got kids thinking about college, or if you’re thinking about college, UAF is — no lie — an incredible value. Small class sizes, taught by world-class researchers (even at the undergraduate level), in a beautiful part of the world. ~$24K/year w/housing www.uaf.edu/finaid/costs...

Sustenance for Alaskans. So glad to live in the salmon forest. #thankyoupubliclands

From several weeks back: the family and I had a bountiful #morel #harvest this year of 45 POUNDS. Cannot believe we were able to easily find them for 4 weeks in a row in Interior #alaska.

I like Nat Herz’s terminology of a “tundra” primary because it’s wide open

You get the good good I voted stickers when you vote early

Monkshood sketch from my nature journal (danger flower! Do not touch or ingest 🙅🏼‍♀️) There were about a million of these blooming along the savage alpine trail in Denali a few weeks ago. #denali #sketch

If you click on a race and then scroll past the candidate profiles, there is a great grouping of questions and each of their responses.

I love this celebration of #publichealth on a wall in Nenana, Alaska, population 358.

went to the glacier by myself like a loser but tourists kept asking me to take their photos since i was alone and tbh it was pretty fun. i like to think i made someone’s alaska cruise slide show go from just okay to excellent.

The Douglas Post Office smells so good!

Vote early and vote in-person if you are able! #AlaskaSky Unfortunately many rural locations do not have access to this option (which is the point these ladies were subtly making)

A beautiful Sunday afternoon exploring the alpine meadows along Middle Fork Campbell Creek Trail. 💙🏔️🌿 Blue skies, blooming wildflowers, fresh mountain air, and the peaceful sound of a mountain stream. #Alaska #ChugachStatePark #GlenAlpsTrailhead #MiddleForkCampbellCreek #AlpineMeadow

Found a rock on my walk! #JuneauRocks

if take care of the land—the land will take care of you 🌿🥰 📍sheet’ká, lingít aaní

What a lovely day for a flight. One of my favorite parts of fishing is the float plane ride home. Here’s the landing into Juneau.

Literally gotta catch them all…
