Haines Border Visit
It was the middle of January and twenty below zero at the destination. She had flown from Anchorage to Juneau, and now Oneida was waiting to fly on to Haines. The day was windy, and the small planes were tied down on the tarmac. The flight was delayed until the wind died down.

Badger and the Alaskan Bush Pilot
âMike, Cayenne Pepper is planning the drop at 1100 hours. Come back!â âLetâs go, Buddy, Mike is meeting us.â Badger jumped up, panting; his tail wagged so hard, it stung Mikeâs leg. Suited for the minus twenty-two temperature, he took off on the snowmobile with its supply sled attached. Badger loped along at his own pace under the bright blue sky, snow flying off his paws. He disappeared after a snowshoe bunny into the black spruce woods.

Blizzard Encounter
In a bitter 1968 blizzard, Sandi was driving her parentsâ VW bus on an Illinois two-lane road. Snow was drifting into tall piles because of the sideways wind. She couldnât see more than a car length in front of her but kept going, hoping her headlights would warn oncoming traffic. It was dangerous to continue in the blizzard, but she had to get to the destination and trusted her instincts and driving skills.

Cold Surprise
The cities on the west side of the Cascade Mountains are not equipped for snow. Lots of rain, occasional windstorms, and sometimes ice storms come. Snow is rare around Seattle, and side streets stay covered in snow and ice, the major roads the priority.

Myron's Badger Saves The Day
âBadger! Letâs get those ice clumps out of your paws.â The big Husky laid down on the wooden deck; I put one paw in my lap and wrapped it in a steaming cloth to loosen the ice. Badgerâs tail thumped. The paw cleaning took thirty minutes, and after, the snowy wilderness and serenity sedated us to snooze by the fireplace.
