“You must live in the present, launch yourself on every wave, find your eternity in each moment. Fools stand on their island of opportunities and look toward another land. There is no other land; there is no other life but this.”
Henry David Thoreau

#NoOtherLand



Throughout this past week, the Chilkat watershed provided some of my most memorable experiences yet. Paddling alongside a humpback, watching porpoises chase a school of fish, floating through the eagle preserve, climbing Peak 3920 to see the whole valley. Haines continues to elevate my enjoyment of adventuring and of Alaska.
