Since I got back from Karluk I've continued to rehab my hamstring injury. I tore it in mid July, and by early August I was able to manage the dig. At Karluk I did a lot of 'tundra hiking', and archaeology but no hills or mountains. Since I've gotten back to town I've started to climb mountains again. I'm slow but the hamstring is feeling better and better.
Since I moved to Kodiak in the late 1990s, this is pretty much the latest I have ever gone and not gone deer hunting. The weather, my hamstring, and dig commitments got in the way. But now I feel I am ready to start. At this time of year deer hunting entails climbing mountains, and that's where I have returned!
It's beautiful up there!
