Today we drove up to 34 Mile. We stopped along the way on the Chilkat River and the Klehini River, the Chilkat Eagle Preserve and Mosquito Lake. The Eagle Preserve will have lots of visitors in November when almost 3,500 eagles congregate in the area. It is the largest gathering of bald eagles in the world and people come from all over the world to view them. Mosquito Lake is properly named! Bob used to come here in the 70’s to picnic and swim. Then we went to Chilkat State Park to visit the hosts John and Jen, back to the shops to visit, then back to camp where we heard a bear ran everyone out of the area around the boat launch this morning. Tonight the campground is full for the first time! It has kept Bob hopping.
