This is the same night (Wednesday) as yesterday’s post, but a different train. It is a bit unusual to see two trains in Seward during the winter.
As an interesting side note, the Alaska Railroad train in yesterday’s post was caught in an avalanche which knocked a few of the cars of the track. Fortunately no one was hurt, the cargo was non hazardous.

A heavy snowstorm hit this area last night. I thought it might be great conditions to photograph eagles, but didn’t have any success. The Alaska Railroad had a couple of trains leaving town, so I decided they would be a good substitute subject.
Bald Eagle, Chugach National Forest, outside of Seward, Alaska.
I found a couple of eagles feeding on some kind of carcass someone had dragged into the nearby trees; it was too far consumed to be recognized. I didn’t expect this one to land so close, I was barely able to keep it’s wings in the frame. Check out more bald eagle photos.

This was from yesterday near Seward. Bald Eagles have always been one of my favorite subjects.
Small bull moose from yesterday, Seward, Alaska.
This guy was hanging right in town. It isn’t evident in this wide-angle photo, but you could still see where his antlers had been attached to his head.
We have lots more moose photos

Well I’m sure that title got your attention, and my friends are probably laughing and rolling their eyes – I better quickly explain.
Evidently, CBS has a daytime TV show entitled The Bold and Beautiful. It was explained to us that one of the characters on the show is this guy who does a lot of adventure travel. Well, CBS contacted us last week and purchased 7 prints of adventure activities to decorate the set that will make up this characters office. These pictures will appear to be personal photos of the character during his travels and adventures. The photo of me above is one of the seven. So star is a big exaggeration – but someday, somewhere, a photo of me just might be visible on the Bold and Beautiful. lol
The Milepost Travel Guide
I’m really excited to have the cover of the The Milepost for the third consecutive year! As I have written before – I grew up in the small town of Glennallen Alaska, and it seemed like evey visitor through town was carrying this guide, so for me, this is like the ultimate cover! We really appreciate the relationship we have with all the folks at the Milepost over the last decade or so – thanks!
I captured this photo last summer at Lake Clark National Park – here were my Lake Clark blog posts from that awesome trip.
