: A Public Defender's Life in Alaska

So, I did something I never thought I would do: I went out on Skilak Lake. Note to future self: always take coordinates for location and a tent. Although we got out on the lake, we did not get to Doroshin Bay Cabin. 2 of us wanted to proceed and 2 wanted to turn around. I must admit the lake was rough but for some reason I can't figure out, it didn't bother me like it usually would. Was it the belly full of pork and Canadian Mist? We will never know.. In a dumb move we all assumed we would find the cabin so we brought no tents. Forty pounds of beer but no tents. We would not have died if we had to spend the night but it meant we came home. In the future we need to take tents, a tarp and coordinates of where we are going. Still a fun night but it was frustrating not to make it to our final destination.
