I miss Alaska.

That’s me, obviously, on the far left. That guy on the far right is Roman Dial (ecologist, adventurer, professor, father of modern day pack-rafting) from National Geographic, and he told us that if you take your hands and place them in the air like he is, caribou might think you have antlers and that you are one of them. Then, you can either approach them slowly, or sometimes they’ll approach you.

So, we did this every time we saw caribou during this one 4-hour bush hike in Denali National Park one day last July, and ended up getting really close to some of the animals. It was awesome for animal nerds like myself, even more so because I got some great pictures of them.

But yeah, I miss this trip a lot. Alaska is my favorite place in the whole world.

Also, this was the same caribou a few minutes later when we had gotten too close.
