Minnow's Guide #4: Bears in the woods, the mountains, on the trail

The Kenai Peninsula has a healthy population of brown bears and black bears. Which of these bears do we worry about most? The brown bears. Good old Ursus arctos horribilis.

Minnow's Guide #2: River City Books

I don't know if you're like me, but I love going to small towns and visiting their independent bookstores for a little local flavor. If you come to Soldotna, be sure to check out River City Books, located at the "Y", especially for its collection of Alaskana and books on local hiking trails. In Soldotna soll man „River City Books" immer besuchen. Diese kleine Buchhandlung ist unabhängiger und hat eine nette Auslese der Bücher über Alaska.
