Back from an amazing week on the lower Yukon River and the Bering Sea, with so much dancing and talking and boating and sunshine and rain and even a few summer chum salmon from the test fishery. Many thanks to the people of Emmonak, St Mary’s, and Pilot Station for the welcome

Apparently 14 years ago today I was in the village of Emmonak on the Yukon River taking pictures with a GoPro at 7:30 PM with the sun still high in the sky. This trip by itself was an incredible experience but so has the last 14 years.
Landscape photo taken with a wide FOV (GoPro). In the foreground lies a partially piled up gill net with visible floats, the webbing trailing off into the midfield. Scraggly trees make up the remainder of the midfield. In the background lies a stretch of the Yukon River delta with various minor islands behind. The sun is high in the frame and shines partially obscured by a mix of cumulus and stratus clouds. Some areas of blue sky are visible.

* WHAT...Flooding caused by high water continues. * WHERE...Emmonak. * WHEN...Until 500 PM AKDT Wednesday. * IMPACTS...Flooding of rivers, creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations is imminent or occurring. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS... - At 845 PM AKDT, local observers report that the ice ran out quickly Tuesday evening with water levels dropping. However, the roads to the airport remain impassable by vehicle at this time. Given that there is little to no ice upstream in the Yukon, the flood threat is greatly diminishing and waters should continue to receded. - For Yukon River at Emmonak: At 7:30am Tuesday the stage was 9.7 feet. - Http://www.weather.gov/aprfc

There are reports that Kwiguk Pass is jamming up at the mouth and that water will begin backing up into Emmonak. The high water has caused flooding in upstream areas in conjunction with this ice run. Residents should take precautions now and continue to monitor the situation closely. - For Yukon River at Emmonak: At 7:00pm the stage was 8.9 feet.
