7/25/13
With only about a hour’s drive today north to Cooper
Landing, AK from Seward we departed late morning up the Seward Highway to the
Sterling Highway cut-off turning westbound toward Cooper Landing situated in
beautiful mountain scenery on the north bank of the Kenai River. This are is called the Upper Kenai area
stretching from Kenai Lake (where millions of salmon are trying to return) to
Skilak Lake. We arrived without
incident at the Princess Wilderness Lodge RV Park.
After our usual quick setup
for both RV’s the four of us headed out to scout the area and make arrangements
for Friday. We decided on a
five-mile hike to Russian Lake Falls to view the salmon run in the morning that
would be followed by a quiet and scenic rafting float of the Kenai River.
Once back at our RV, Bob and Sharon joined us for a dinner Joy had made in our crockpot while on the road of Pot Roast, potatoes, and carrots. Dessert was served later in the evening of home made Rhubarb Crisp and vanilla ice cream. I have haven't mentioned it to date, don't worry that Joy and I are missing many meals as we travel!
