A Naturalist on the Katmai Peninsula of Alaska
The Katmai lies west of Anchorage, across Cook Inlet. It is a rugged country with massive mountains, endless tundra plains, and numerous lakes, creeks, and rivers. Travel with me to this country and explore a few places in two national parks. We will look for bears, follow sockeye on their migration, chase birds, and explore the geology of the mountains. I will share stories from my book, Beyond the Wonder: An Ecologist’s View of Wild Alaska.
