Join Scott as he travels to Wrangell, then takes a journey on the Chutine Warrior jet boat up the Stikine River for another adventure in SE Alaska. Alaska HDTV returns to Wrangell, Alaska for another multi-part video adventure series with our friends Jim & Wilma Leslie at Alaska Waters.
In this episode, Scott introduces the show from Chief Shakes Island in Wrangell. After a brief history lesson about Shakes Island and Wrangell, Scott meets up with Jim Leslie (owner of Alaska Waters) to kick off the Stikine River day tour.
After a tour of the river, the jet boat makes its way up toward Chief Shakes Glacier. Even though the boat wasn’t able to get all the way up to the face of the glacier, Scott and the other guests were able to get a hands on experience with the icebergs! We always have a wonderful time in Wrangell and the folks at the Stikine Inn are doing a wonderful job of restoring their hotel. Stop in and get a first class massage or visit their new bar/lounge and look out over the bay!
