Arriving in McGrath
Today we got up pretty early and flew into McGrath. The plane ride was not very long at all and the view was great. shortly after arriving we went ice fishing, which was fun. Instead of using ice fishing traps they jig the line, which is on a wooden spindle. The bait consisted of salmon, salmon eggs and crab. Unfortunately we did not get a fish, but we did meet some people from McGrath. When we arrived at 9:30 the temperature was -10F and then it climbed to 20F by noon.
