    Here's a couple of pics of the Pacific Spaceport Complex where the missile launches take place on Kodiak. Unfortunately it was socked in with fog so the actual launch pad wasn't visible when we rolled through.

    @Elessar @Bilgerat Picture of USCG ships in Kodiak :



    Coasties warming up one of their helicopters - these guys are revered around Kodiak. Many fishermen owe their lives to them :



    Next to the main entrance to the USCG base :




    That's enough uploading for now... I have a bunch more of outlying towns & scenery and if there's enough interest I'll upload more.

    I have lost my mind. If found, please give it a snack and return it?

    Thanks for the great pics, and the cool bear story. If that bear had successfully snuck up on you, well let's just say it's a good idea to hire pilots that can't run very fast.

    I, for one, would be interested in seeing more of your pictures.

    Great pics!
