Raft Trip

June 8, 2011


We had a great trip rafting down the Kenai River.  It sprinkled a little so we put on raingear, but it turned out to be a beautiful day!




This is Gabe our guide.  He was fun and we enjoyed learning about the area as we floated down the river!

While floating under the bridge above, we saw several people gold panning along the river.
Above is where the Russian River merges into the Kenai River.  This is a great fishing area when the red salmon head up the Russian River.  They call it 'combat fishing' with so many fisherman lined up along the river.   Maybe I will have a picture of that later.  The ferry below takes fisherman across the river so they can fish from both sides.



Ducks along the river!











We saw this bear at the very end of the raft trip. He never turned around to get a  good picture!



What a relaxing and enjoyable day!
