30 In 30, Day 11 - "From the Air, II: Swan Neck Slough" By Jennifer Thompson
Day 11 - Swan Neck Slough is off the Tolovana River west of Fairbanks, AK. The
mountains in the distance are the Rampart Mountains and the bigger one,
Baldry Mountain. Just beyond is the village of Rampart. Beyond and a bit
left is the village of Tanana,at the confluence of the Tanana and Yukon
Rivers. I used to fly out to Tanana, as a passenger, at least once a
week when I worked for the FAA up there. Swan Neck Slough was a uniquely
identifiable landscape feature, important in navigating in a time
before widespread GPS!
