After 14 days of training, and about a month of working, I've finally come to the point where I feel like (more of) a pro (day) guide (!)
This is how nervous I get for trips now...
And my mind is this clear...
or maybe it's this clear...
(Aka one day at work I had an extra 5 minutes, so I snapped those views)
I even got out of the car...
Random Skagway Adventures
A pic on the way out to a fire
(aka my 'Oh shoot we have way too much time' driving pull out)
And just a random pic I took one morning...
And we celebrated National Juggling Day!
ADVENTURE JOB
And I even had some fun at work!
My driver is a pretty cool dog.
I've been getting better at cooking.
Cool thing is that this is fairly common now. I take care of myself.
One of the really cool things I got to do recently was get eaten by tons of mosquitoes!
Aka Trail Work!
Crushin it.
I work here.
um wut?
And some more random pictures...
(b/c fog)
Driving the Chilkoot Trip
Little known fact: Alaska Mountain Guides guides the Chilkoot
And if you're really lucky, you can get a cool driver...
The backpacks going out...
And then I drove home on this road
(This is also the road I do long runs on. Definitely spoiled out here.)
PERSONAL BACKPACKING TRIP
As cool as the people I work with are, sometimes I do try to get away.
On a day hike...
Or overnight trips
Or overnight trips
Because places like this

Help me feel at peace

OTHER FUN
And once I've had my peace, it's time to get rowdy!
Great day for getting after it!
And a great meal to finish the day with
And here are a few pics from my last epic day off:
And then...
CLIMBING
Aka my favorite thing ever...
Also, this is what Skagway does when it gets a thunderstorm:
Everyone goes out and checks it out!
WORKING ON?!
And I'm working on a Return of the King book review, I'm reading Once a Runner now, and I'm basically just trying to have lots of fun in Skagway!
ENJOY!
