Default $100 fish burger

I took some time off from building my RV8 last weekend the wife and I decided to go watch some bears eat fish at Brooks Falls here in Alaska.


The flight was from Anchorage to Katmai with a fuel stop each way at Port Alsworth. Total flight time was 7.6 hours using 58 gal. at an average cost of $7.00 per gal. (It was $8.00 at Port Alsworth and worth every penny). Our lunch was free as we packed sandwiches. I guess the bears eat free too...

Been there, sure is pretty country. When I was there is was late September so the bears were pretty full and not terribly aggressive about their fishing. They would just sit there with their rumps in the river and their mouths open and if an unlucky fish just happened to jump through it they might think about closing their mouth.
