Canoeing the Noatak River in Alaska in 1989

Finally the moose moved on. We loaded the canoes and paddled out onto the lake. Eventually, Ron Costello from Brooks Range Aviation arrived and we loaded directly from the boats into the plane. We flew off toward the Noatak and Jan took the truck back to Fairbanks. Because of the weather, we ended up flying to Bettles, not straight to the Noatak. We spent the night in Bettles and made it to the river the next day. Having flights delayed by a day or two on these northern trips is very common.
