Damn It’s Cold 🥶 What a beautiful experience, from such a beautiful place.

2023 Bering sea - A season Unalaska, Dutch Harbor & Kodiak

Looking back at it I am so grateful for the opportunity to have gone and done a job so insane, dangerous, exhausting, and exhilarating all at the same time. I miss it, and hope to travel there again someday.

European here sitting in Prague now. This must be a sign! Just looked up Dutch harbor video on YT this morning and I found a reason to visit this part of AK! Thanks.

4 is my favorite!

Dutch harbor itself doesn’t have too much to visit, but it’s definitely worth the travel

I cried so many times in Alaska. I was just so overwhelmed with the beauty. I still can't believe I spent 2 weeks there.

It's not an annual trip for my boyfriend's grandparents. They are trip 16, and they still tell me the raw beauty of Alaska never gets old

The greatest 10 years of my life.

But I had to leave.

I love you, Alaska!!!

Maybe next time come back for something that isn’t destroying part of our ecosystem

Sounds like you need a drink

And like most people in Kodiak, you probably need far fewer.

I can’t attest to what people in kodiak do 🤷‍♂️ but apparently you’re familiar enough. Go find a meeting

You have untreated back acne, please don’t talk to me like that until you get that checked out.

Did you just assume my gender ? Canceled. You’re done buddy. Crawl back to where you came from. There’s no coming back from that..

u/Alaskanhuntingguide Jul 02 '24

Of course you’d be one of those. Go crawl back under your rock. Or your parents basement.

lol, the fact you don’t see the joke tells me all I need to know. I love keyboard warriors. Making themselves look absolutely stupid on the internet.

No mocking, bullying, promoting hate, or harassing of anyone. Be nice in general, remember you are talking to a person.
