On the Chilkat River in Haines, Alaska went down to do some wheeling and then got worried that the stock tires don't have enough bite to deal with glacial silt (imagine clay with oil mixed in it and gooey). Need to get some chains made for next trip. Dogs had fun. Didn't catch many fish.

Nice photos. Good looking truck, but awesome looking dogs! My wife and I have 2 German Shepherds.




We would love to visit Alaska some day.

If anyone from FTE makes it to Alaska in the summer give me a shout before you head up here if you buy the gas, bait, and beer I'll take you out halibut and salmon fishing.

From the pics, you better start taking reservations

And then you'd have a 2nd vehicle to go out there for WHEN we'd get stuck

Man, I miss that place. Cant wait to get back in a couple years. We lived in Anchorage though. I spent some time in Juneau, but never made it to Haynes. Love that place.

Maybe you can feel the homesick jealousy though your monitor screen...
