Cook's Inlet

Moose Cow and Calf
This photo of a moose cow and calf is from our 2010 visit to Cook’s Inlet.  As has been the case this entire trip, we came up empty again today when it came to seeing wildlife.  I’m trying to be patient…

The weather, however, has been spectacular!  Sunny days, with a high in the upper 60's & low 70’s.  Perfect… and so much different than our last visit (which was the tenth wettest summer on record).

We three took a stroll on the trail around the campsite, enjoying the view of the volcanoes across the inlet... something we never saw during our first trip here... And a view of the beach. We decided not to take a hike up the beach.  The tides come in very quickly here, and with Roxanne moving slowly, we decided not to chance it.






After talking with the camp hosts who had not seen a moose or bear the entire summer… and with sunny weather predicted through the weekend… we decided to cut our trip here short and head down to Homer.
