As we drift, ask me about the history of the Chena River, the founding of Fairbanks, and the stories of the pioneers, riverboats, and the gold rush that helped shape Interior Alaska. if you want to cast a line and fish for some arctic grayling, we can do that too, if you purchase a valid fishing license.
