Annie's Gnat
Attack
"This summer a group of us women and
my husband, Larry, went upriver above Russian Mission and set up camp
across from Peteroff's dogfish camp. We had a magnificent view of the
steep mountain from there. At 6:00 P.M. we went to check for berries
inside Tucker Slough. We spotted a boat and knew some people were
berrypicking there. So we decided to climb Nutschaaq Mountain and
pick berries up on the slope. I had been there once before with my
son, Ronnie, and some Russian Mission friends. But the slope was so
steep and treacherous that I almost gave up. By climbing on all
fours, though, I made it and felt so relieved. Up there it was like
reliving the sights and sounds of the past.
After an hour of climbing, I picked
one gallon of blackberries. But the gnats attacked us by the millions
because the breeze was on the opposite side of us, on the other slope
of the hill.
The next morning it was drizzling out
so we stayed in camp and rested. As we were snacking near our
campfire I spotted three dark black objects in the open tundra on the
mountainside above Peteroff's camphouse. We checked with binoculars
to see a mother Black bear with two cubs. They all looked huge, and
the young cubs chased each other and climbed up the hill and ran out
of sight among the trees. Their mother
trailed after them slowly, stopping
to eat berries along the way.
On our way home we toured most of the
moose camp spots and stopped to check the tundra for berries as we
got closer to Marshall."
