In August we regularly swim through and with schooling pink salmon up here in Sitka, AK. sometimes we will split up our swim group where one will actually scare up a large school and they will go rushing by the other group. Its pretty awesome when a hundred or so 10-15 pound salmon go rushing by you!
While we don't usually see too many sharks our shallow waters, we do have some pretty big sealions! check out the latest issue of Swimmer. That's Kris Calvin one of our perennial Sitka Sound open ocean racers with that bull stellar sealion. While that was a pretty close encounter, we regularly see those guys checking us out on swims!
come up and join us for the Change Your Latitude Challenge.... experience for yourself! :afraid:
