I’m slightly embarrassed to admit that yesterday was my first visit to Granite Basin, up above the Perseverance Trail. I _thought_ I had been there before, but I had actually just been to the end of Gold Creek. I had mistakenly done this multiple times, until yesterday when I managed to actually look at the trail sign! At first, I was regretting the decision because I was quickly in a salmonberry thicket with no views at all. But that didn’t last long. Soon, I popped out of that and into the basin, which is stunningly beautiful—especially on a bluebird day like we had yesterday. Surprisingly, it didn’t take me that long from the trailhead to get up into the subalpine meadows that are so beautiful. Here are a few aerials that I shot from the drone. On one shot, you can see the steep trail that connects the Juneau Ridge to the Granite Creek Basin—quite an interesting perspective for those of you that have done it.

Amazingly, this lone, Hudsonian godwit, has stuck around Juneau for at least five days. After my third try of trying to locate this guy, I finally was able to this afternoon. It was raining out today, but I’m glad that didn’t stop me from shooting. I love how you can see the water droplets beading up on its back—something I couldn’t discern through the lens but emerged during my edits. Love it!

Aerial view of Nugget Falls.

Here you can see just how silty Mendenhall Lake is. As the freshwater from Nugget Falls enters the lake, the clear, silt free water enters the lake creating a zone of high contrast between the two. Travel Juneau Autel Robotics

Here are a few shots from my glacier exploration a few days ago. Some of these aerial shots from the drone are created from many shots spliced together—a technique that is necessary to include such a vast area from a relatively low altitude. The changes that this glacier has gone through in the past few years that I have been watching it are dramatic. I’m particularly intrigued by how the primary outwash is changing and growing. I can’t say that I recommend kayaking under/into the ice cave, however this individual did offer me an interesting scale element that I wouldn’t have had otherwise. Thanks?

Dippers are one of the most entertaining birds to watch. They “dip” as their name suggests, as the assess the food in their immediate vicinity. Then bob their heads underwater and grab aquatic insects, and this time of year, salmon eggs. I think that this particular bird was a fledgling, as it still had a tiny bit of fluff on it that it seemed to be preening off.

I laid on the gravel bed of the stream to get a low perspective and to put the waterfall in the background.

LOVE these birds! Canon USA Travel Juneau Travel Alaska
