    In this episode, Reet interviews Fred Drake, founder of Snorkel Alaska, about the unique experience of snorkeling in a cold water environment like Ketchikan, compared to the tropical locations that we often associate with snorkeling. What Makes Alaska Snorkeling Unique? - Thick 7mm wetsuits, hoods, boots, and gloves keep you warm despite cold waters reaching 65F in summer - Abundant marine life - fish, kelp, plants, invertebrates like sea stars, urchins, cucumbers - See wildlife like wolf eels, sea lions, otters, whales (orcas, humpbacks) up close - Steep underwater rock walls and ability to free dive down 100ft walls right off shore Tour season for snorkeling in Alaska is May to September, coinciding with cruise ship arrivals. You'll find the warmest water June through August, while April, May, September tend to have clearest water visibility. While the cruise ship industry is crucial for bringing tourism to the area, Fred and his company are keenly aware of the environmental impacts. Their tours start directly on the beach, limiting local boat traffic, and they educate guests about the sustainability of marine life in the area. Ketchikan is a beautiful area for an extended visit, with abundant opportunity for activities like hiking, fishing, camping, kayaking, mountain biking, and kiteboarding.

    Ep 39. Bellingham Washington Mountain Biking

    Exploring Bellingham: A Mountain Biker's Paradise In Conversation with Ike Bancroft of Dig Deep Mountain Biking Tours Introduction Nestled in the heart of the Pacific Northwest, Bellingham, Washington, is an outdoor enthusiast's dream come true. With its lush forests, stunning bay, and rugged mountains, it's no wonder that Ike Bancroft, owner of Dig Deep Mountain Biking Tours, chose this picturesque town as the backdrop for his mountain biking adventures. From Boston to Bellingham: Ike's Journey Ike Bancroft, originally from Boston, Massachusetts, found his love for mountain biking in the hills of Vermont. However, it was a brief stint in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, at the age of 18, that fueled his passion. Ike's days were spent shuttling up and down the pass trails, hitchhiking with his downhill bike in tow. At 21, he moved to Bellingham to attend Western Washington University. The allure of outdoor pursuits drew him to this vibrant town. But it wasn't until later, in 2019, that he decided to establish Dig Deep Mountain Biking Tours. COVID-19 momentarily halted his plans, but in 2021, the venture finally took off to an enthusiastic reception. Bellingham's Mountain Biking Paradise Bellingham offers an array of mountain biking experiences, and Ike is the perfect guide to navigate this mountain biking paradise. Galbraith Mountain: Boasting over 70 trails suitable for all skill levels, Galbraith Mountain is a local favorite. It's conveniently located near the town, making it easily accessible. The Chuckanuts: Also known as Larrabee State Park, this area, particularly in the southern section, offers shuttle-accessible advanced-level trails. The Chuckanuts provide breathtaking views. Lookout Mountain Preserve: For those seeking a more backcountry experience, Lookout Mountain Preserve offers a serene escape. The Cougar Ridge trail is a highlight, surrounded by Lake Whatcom's beauty. East Side of Lake Whatcom: On the east side of the lake, you'll find the Brown Pow trail, another gem for mountain biking enthusiasts. Greenway Trails: If you prefer a more relaxed ride or even a leisurely stroll, Bellingham has an extensive network of greenway trails, including routes along the base of the Chuckanuts. Beyond Mountain Biking: Exploring Bellingham While mountain biking is a central activity, Bellingham has much more to offer. Ike recommends exploring the stunning bay, which sets Bellingham apart from many outdoor towns. Rocky sandstone beaches, sandstone cliffs, and ocean views are perfect for unwinding after a ride. Water activities abound, from kayaking to stand-up paddleboarding and even sailing. Don't miss the chance to embark on a whale-watching trip; the local orca pods make it a memorable experience. For a complete Bellingham adventure, consider hiking in the craggy mountains, especially during the summer months. Ptarmigan Ridge, starting at Artist Point, is a popular choice. And of course, make time for the local breweries and entertainment options, which add a delightful dimension to your visit. Responsible Outdoor Recreation in Bellingham Visiting Bellingham comes with a responsibility to preserve its natural beauty. Ike emphasizes that it's essential to be mindful of the impact visitors can have on this pristine environment. Show curiosity and respect for the area, recognizing that you are a guest. Educate yourself about the region's history, native populations, industry, and environmental context. Be aware of your actions, respect the environment, and stay on designated trails. Support local trail-building organizations to contribute to the sustainability of these outdoor locations.
