September Water Quality Sampling

September 6, 2012 

 

 

That's the view from a Cessna 207 of Sleetmute, AK on our flight from Sleetmute to Aniak.  Will and I went out to Georgetown for our Fall water testing.  For more information on the testing itself, visit our Water Quality - Results page.

I don’t know about Will, but I was expecting rain and cold - we seemed to luck out and miss the rain they’d been having for the previous few days, if not weeks.  It was a fairly quiet trip - I spotted a moose on the banks of the Kuskokwim on our way down from Sleetmute.  We had lots of flights this time - our journey consisted of layovers in Aniak and Bethel before heading back to Anchorage.  Like always, it was nice to just have a day or two of quiet, away from town.

All was well in Georgetown, and yup - the water is still good!  It was revealing for me to get an aerial view of GTC’s land.  It looks a lot bigger and grander with this sort of view, although the view from Anne’s house is hard to beat.  I can only imagine how nice it would be to wake up, day after day, with a view such as this one.  For now, a flight overhead will have to do.
