Fish creek, flanked by the forest hillsides of the Tongass National Forest, Hyder, Alaska, southeast. Canon 24-105mm f/4L IS (55mm), 1/15 sec @ f/16, ISO 100
Fish creek is located in near Hyder, Alaska, the only mainland accessible town along Alaska’s southern portion of the panhandle. It is a tiny place and accessed from the Cassiar Highway in British Columbia, Canada. Fish creek is a popular destination for bears who come in search of the salmon that lay in its clear waters. The Tongass National Forest borders the area and it was in classical form during my short visit, which was misty, rain filled clouds that would come and go through the mountains.
