Goose Lake Park/Friends/Trail {Anchorage, Alaska}
Today was a good sunny day. I played frisbee with my friends. And I like to take a lot of photos of random things. I learned from photography take picutres in many different angles you want. I'm exploring many things with my camera. And I love going to parks.

Alaska Metal Detecting - Anchorage's Goose Lake Park Beach - Coins, Hello Kitty Bling & Trash
Went for about a two hours metal detecting trip to Goose Lake Park in Anchorage. Started at 6:30 am. Only saw one mosquito and a bunch of ducks. I was hoping for a gold ring but it wasn't meant to be. Had a lot of fun and got some fresh air on my day off.
ALASKA METAL DETECTING - Goose Lake Park - Garrett AT Pro
I got an early start metal detecting at Goose Lake Park this morning. We've had some warm days and people flock to the park for swimming. Unfortunately I got called to work after only detecting 45 minutes. I still found two really cool toy cars and one penny. Also found a thumb drive that has several documents on it. I just sent a facebook message in an attempt to contact the owner and get the thumb drive back to them. Used my Garrett AT Pro and Garrett Pro Pointer.

Kincaid park Beach, Anchorage, Alaska. By Robert Scott
Went down to the beach at Kincaid park last night. Low tide @ 7:45.
Most people in Anchorage don't know about it, but there is actual SAND there! And you can slide in the mud, and then wash it off in the Inlet- if you dare... Stunning views of Fire island, and Sleeping lady ( Mt. Susitna)
MudHippies LOVE IT!
Kumbaya, and drumming circles! Fires on the beach, and plenty of Granola and weed.
Our Four Favorite Alaska Sights | Atlas Obscura
Generations of artisans, builders, and scientists alike have found inspiration in Alaska’s rugged landscape. Here are four of Alaska's most unusual sights from across its wild, open spaces: Goose Creek Tower, a whimsical 185-foot-tall, stacked cabin that serves as one engineer and lawyer’s “poem to the sky”; Aunt Claudia’s Dolls, a doll museum featuring one of the world’s most diverse collections of indigenous dolls; Igloo City, an abandoned concrete hotel made to look like an igloo; and a frozen permafrost tunnel, where fossils of all kinds and frozen plant and animal remains abound.

America's Wildest Places - Alaska Maritime National Wildlife Refuge
The Alaska Maritime National Wildlife Refuge is the most remote and far flung unit of the National Wildlife Refuge System. A place of great distances and greater dramas, the Refuge includes the spectacular volcanic islands of the Aleutian chain, the seabird cliffs of the remote Pribilofs, and icebound lands washed by the Chukchi Sea. Established in 3.4 million acres, the Refuge is home to mammals such as the polar bear, northern fur seal, Steller sea lions, otters and walruses; 40 million seabirds of more than 30 species such as puffins, auklets, cormorants and other migratory birds, and the marine resources upon which they rely.
Because it is spread out along most of the 47,300 miles of Alaska's coastline, the sheer span of this refuge is difficult to grasp. Its more than 2,500 islands, islets, spires, rocks, reefs, waters and headlands extend from Forrester Island, to the north of Canada's Queen Charlotte Islands deep in the southeast tongue of the state, to the westernmost tip of the Aleutians (and of America!), and north to Cape Lisburne on the Arctic Ocean. Traveling between its farthest-flung points would be the equivalent of taking a trip from Georgia to California.
So many facets of Alaska's history happened on the lands and waters of the Alaska Maritime Refuge that the Refuge seems like a time-capsule story of the state and the conservation of island wildlife.
Pre 1800s -- The first people come to the islands, the Russian voyages of discovery, the beginnings of the fur trade, first rats and fox introduced to islands, Steller sea cow goes extinct.
1800s -- Whaling, America buys Alaska, growth of the fox fur industry, beginnings of the refuge.
1900 to 1945 -- Wildlife Refuge System is born and more land put in the refuge, wildlife protection increases through treaties and legislation, World War II rolls over the refuge, rats and foxes spread to more islands.
1945 to the present -- Cold War bases built on refuge, nuclear bombs on Amchitka, refuge expands and protections increase, Aleutian goose brought back from near extinction, marine mammals in trouble.
Getting There
The refuge is headquartered in the Alaska Islands and Ocean Visitor Center located in Homer, which is at the end of the Sterling Highway, approximately 225 miles south of Anchorage. Regularly scheduled flights are available from Anchorage. The Alaska State Ferry System also serves Homer. Since most of the refuge is very remote, access is difficult and expensive. Tourists and visitors should contact the refuge for specific information about particular sites.

Alaska Metal Detecting - Anchorage's Jewel Lake Park
Went for an early morning metal detecting hunt at Jewel Lake Park on the southwest side of Anchorage Alaska. I only detected the volleyball court, beach area, and playground areas. Used my Fisher F2 detector and new Garrett Pro Pointer. I found $1.52 in clad. Had a great time, got some fresh air and a little exercise.
Alaska from Above: Floatplane over Anchorage and Chugach State Park
(open for more info)
We had the chance to take a short ride on a floatplane--another tick on the bucket list--and gained a little perspective (albeit as tourists) on Alaskan bush pilots, who rely upon their planes for survival, whether they're outfitted with wheels, snow skis, or floats. We saw Anchorage from above, gorged ourselves on the views of remote areas of the Chugach mountains, spotting moose and Dall sheep, and appreciated a bird's eye view of low tide and Fire Island and Cook Inlet.

*quoted material
“Aviation touches all aspects of life in Alaska, and is a basic mode of transportation because approximately 90% of Alaska is not served by roads. Alaska has six times as many pilots per capita and 16 times as many aircraft per capita when compared to the rest of the United States. In the state of Alaska, there are fewer than 12,000 miles of paved roads. Aviation is not only the state pastime; it is the state's major form of transportation.”

We found Airplane Wreckage in the Smoky Mountains - Water rock knob trail
We searched deep into the blue ridge mountains to find this airplane. It is moving to see something like this in the woods just left to be forgotten. Please consider subscribing and leave a like!
INSTRUCTIONS TO FIND THE AIRPLANE= Once you get on water rock knob trail, make your way to the top, then cut onto the trail to your left before going up the last set of rock stairs. The next .7 of a mile is browning knob trail. It is very difficult with a lot of steep climbing and decending. Once you find yourself in an opening there will be a very noticeable trail to the left through the woods. Go down that trail and about .05 of a mile is how for the wrecked airplane will be.

VLOG 16 | Alaska Aviation Museum
This was an amazing trip to Alaska. I need to get to the phantom footage from the Kenai peninsula. One place we did stop was the Aviation Museum in Anchorage which was a great hour and a half before flying home.
ALASKA METAL DETECTING - Mirror Lake Park
A little metal detecting trip to Mirror Lake Park. Mirror Lake is located next to the Glenn Highway/Alaska 1 north of Anchorage and a little south of Palmer/Wasilla. I used my Garrett AT Pro and Garret Pro Pointer to find a neat money clip and a few coins. Would have been extra nice if there had been some bills in the clip. Oh well, I enjoyed the gorgeous scenery and warm weather.
