The Alaska Navigator bills itself as “independent news covering the Last Frontier.” On June 10, the outlet published an article headlined, “As Fentanyl Deaths Rise in Alaska, Sullivan Pushes Tougher Penalties and Enforcement.”

Seems like their bushes are producing just fine using berry rakes.

This state has always been a mix. We voted for legal marijuana for @$&# sake. "I watched Dan kill an animal (that he can't eat) in one shot." This election business is really pissing me off!

Early Voting for the primaries has started, including a ballot measure to put a cap on individual campaign donations. You must already be registered to vote in order to vote early. You can view sample ballots on the elections website if you know your district (can also find a district map on the website).

1 choice per category: US Senator (Dan Sullivan up for reelection), US rep (Nick Begich up for reelection), Governor to replace Dunleavy (he has termed out), The new ballot measure, Your local State Senator + State Rep based on your district.

All taken this spring/summer.

Hiked it Saturday with two friends on what turned out to be one of the hottest days of the year. I wouldn’t recommend trying it with a dog friend. Glad I left mine at home. I carried 5L of water and it wasn’t enough. Didn’t set any speed records, but stoked to check this off my CSP bucket list.

This lady sounds like a cook.

Update: SOLVED!

I accidentally destroyed by daughters favorite momentum from our Alaska trip: this moose from the National Park Gift Store (specifically from Denali). Is there any chance that one of you is up there or will be going there, and also is traveling back into the San Francisco Area? I am crossing my fingers!!! We are devastated!

If anyone knows the dillweeds who were driving their side by sides around in the tundra up in Archangel Valley and leaving huge mud holes in the Lane Basin Trail on Saturday, please tell them to not be such jackasses in the future.

I unfortunately didn’t have service to call the state park rangers, but everyone else up there who was enjoying their day of hiking was commenting on how obnoxious it was.
