This site is about running trail cameras in Southeast Alaska and other outdoor activities.
I had a camera here several years ago, it did really well but I moved it to check out other areas, I decided to use this spot again last Spring. We had a big return of pink salmon this year and this is the most salmon I’ve seen so far up this creek in a few years. The deer will be back when the salmon run is over and the bears leave.

This video is takes place during the peak of the pink salmon run.
Deer like this spot year round, during the rut the over hanging branch in the center of the screen gets a lot of attention from the roaming bucks.

Black bear really like this puddle, when they are not wading in it they are drinking from it, or they scoop some muck out of it and roll in it.
I spent Saturday looking for deer and checking trailcams, I didn’t see any bucks but managed sneak in close enough to bag 4 does with my camera in thick stuff.
Sunday I dragged a herring around behind my kayak, fishing was slow but I managed to catch a few cohos
I left a camera aimed at the first deer I shot this season, here are the best of about 1600 pictures.
I didn’t see much wildlife this trip but got to know a couple areas a bit better, and found a few fresh buck rubs, showing the rut is starting though it probably won’t get serious for about 4 more weeks.
I set this camera on the gut pile of a deer I shot last time I was here, this bear tried to claim it. I moved the camera to this fork in a main trail.
