This edible “weed” has many uses. New emerging stems and young leaves may be eaten raw or steamed/sautéed like asparagus. Fresh pink blossoms can add mild flavor and color to salads or be used to make jelly ______________________________________ Chakachamna lake, AK #ak #fireweed #akprojectdiscover #wildflowers

The common raven (Corvus corax) is a large passerine (or perching bird) and a member Corvidae family of birds, which includes jays, crows, and magpies. They can average 25 inches in length and 2.6 pounds. They are notorious scavengers and will hide or cache food supplies. Their unique call is easily recognized; the deep, resonant “kaw” or “prruk prruk prruk” or “glook” is its trademark. __________________________________ Port Alsworth - Alaska #AK #akprojectdiscover #raven #bigblackbirds #portalsworth #lakeclarknps

It’s fun to look for ice shapes as the lakes freeze. Different ice shapes form in different areas of the lake and the patterns they make are quite beautiful! ______________________________________ Lake Iliamna - Alaska #AK #lakeiliamna ##akprojectdiscover #cessna #c207 #flyitlikeyoustolit #flylakeckarkair @lake_clark_air
One of my favorite parts of wintertime flying is watching the ice form on our larger lakes. This is Lake Iliamna, over 70 miles long and 20 miles wide. It’s takes a while for this behemoth to freeze up, but what else would you expect from the largest lakes in the U.S.? _____________________________________ Lake Iliamna - Alaska #AK #lakeiliamna ##akprojectdiscover #cessna #c207 #flyitlikeyoustolit #flylakeckarkair @lake_clark_air
A brief stop in Iliamna, AK to watch the sunset on the way home today. A brisk outside temperature of -4°F keeps you awake while flying in this Cessna 207. _________________________________________________ Iliamna - Alaska #AK #iliamna #cessna #c207 #flyitlikeyoustolit #flylakeclarkair @lake_clark_air

At just over 10,000 feet, Mt. Redoubt is the highest summit in the Aleutian Range. It can often be seen steaming from its lava dome as you fly by on flights through Lake Clark Pass. _______________________________ Mt.

Kaguyak crater, located in the northeast portion of Katmai National Park, truncates a former stratovolcano. Post caldera lava domes form a peninsula and island within the 1.5 mile diameter lake. ______________________________________________ Mt.

Just 176 miles southwest of Anchorage in south Cook Inlet, this 32 square mile island is home to Mt. Augustine, a central dome cluster stratovolcano that is part of the Aleutian volcanic arc and had its last major eruption event from mid December 2005 through January 2006. _______________________________ Mt.
