Kiska

Just before arriving at Kiska, after another long passage we spotted a Sperm Whale sleeping on the surface


Kiska and Attu were the two islands invaded by the Japanese. There is lots of old junk lying around. The americans and canadians geared up for a big assault. When they arrived they found that the Japanese had evacuated and left in the foggy night.

Rich and Corrine were new crew members that came over to our boat from Orries. 
Rich caught about a 50 pound halibut within minutes of our arrival at Kiska

I hiked over to Salmon Lagoon and found a glass float on the beach.




Linda and Suki here is a geo cache we stumbled upon.
