Book by January 1st 2025 and received 15% off by lake and river adventure's.I came to Alaska in 1994 to fulfill my childhood dream of living off the land, wondering whether I had the grit to survive. I lived my dream to the max, exploring the Kenai Peninsula in every season by horse, boat, plane and on foot! Thankfully I survived! Along the way I caught gold prospecting fever! In 2004, I began sharing my passion for prospecting with others, opening a store, and guiding gold prospecting and mining trips into the wild. In 2010, I obtained a United States Forest Service permit to access streambeds otherwise off limits to prospectors and to the public.
