Outside Resurrection Bay towards the Gulf of Alaska you may run into Spire Cove. This is an absolutely gorgeous landscape and the water color was seemingly tropical.

After being hunted to near extinction the sea otter has rebounded and become one of conservation's success stories. While not seen frequently around Juneau, I managed to capture this Sea Otter foraging along Resurrection Bay in Seward, Alaska.

Denali Wolf

Denali Wolf

My shallow lake sampling in Denali National Park was grounded after my pilot couldn't fly. I decided to spend the weekend creeping around looking for wildlife. I stumbled upon this amazing female black wolf during her early morning hunt. We were within 12 feet of each other as she stopped to meet my gaze.
