Gold Mining

Today on the ninth day of our trip we went Gold mining in 2 different spots now let me tell you about it. So first we went gold mining at crows creek and they showed you howto do it and game you little bit of dirt with gold in it and then we panned it and we all got 2-6 little flakes and then we went down to the creek and we panned for gold down there for about 3-4 hours. I found 3 little flakes and everyone else found something to. After that we went to a new gold mining spot and we used the sluice box and found a few more pieces of gold there. It ended up being a really good day and it was super fun. Remember to check tomorrow for more updates.

Anchorage, AK

So today on the 8th day of our trip we saw many things we saw Glaciers and more mountains with snow on them. First we went on a tour to see Glaciers and Ice Burgs and we saw lots of both. We saw Portage Glacier the biggest one on the lake. It’s 1/2 a mile long and 300-400 feet thick and it takes 10 feet of snow to compact for 10 years and then it makes 1 foot of ice so portage glacier has been around for 10-15 thousand years. Then later we went to Ship Creek were we saw salmon from a viewing platform. We saw Chinook salmon or black salmon and Sockeye salmon or red salmon. Tomorrow we are planning on going gold mining. Remember to check the blog again for more tomorrow updates, and sorry I don’t have any pictures of the fish.

Lethbridge, Canada - Grand Prairie, Canada

Today on the fourth day of our trip to Alaska we saw many things. We saw the biggest railroad bridge in the world 🌎.  We saw mountains ⛰ and hills. Some of the mountains even had snow on them. If you’ve ever been to Canada 🇨🇦 you might’ve felt they’re money. It’s even thinner paper than our money’s paper with a little plastic going around it. It’s super weird. Canadians also don’t have pennies so they just round to the nearest half and also Canadians have loonies $1 coins and toonies $2 coins. We also saw 1 mule deer. Check tomorrow for more updates.
