[QUOTE="JimFromTN, post: 2009839, member: 113268"] I went to AK to moose hunt a couple of years back with a friend who lives there. We took his jet boat down the Tanana river. The water was really low and was the color of chocolate milk and his depth finder wasn't working. Really bad combination. I was really uncomfortable with it. We beached the boat at about 30 mph. We ended up having to make a quick camp on the side of the river. Looked like we would get eaten by bears if we camped there. I spooned my 44 mag the whole night. My friend snored so loud that I didn't sleep. He sounded like the largest bear in the woods and I don't think anything was willing to brave walking into our camp. Luckily, his gps was working and we were able to follow it back up the river to avoid the shallow water the next morning. We put the boat back on the trailer and pulled it down the Elliot hwy to Manly. The weather was way too warm and we didn't get a moose. Only saw cows and calves. We drove through Fairbanks and it was 80 degrees. People were walking through town in t-shirts and shorts. [/QUOTE]
