Tolsona Wilderness Campground

On the morning of my birthday, June 18th, we left Tonsina River Lodge and headed back to Glennellen with great views of the Wrangell Mountains to the east.  We saw our sixth bear this morning, a young black bear that crossed the road in front of us.  We stopped in Glennellen and filled to fill our tank and buy a one day fishing license then headed for the Tolsona Wilderness Campground for a day of relaxing.

Our campsite at Tolsona Wilderness Campground was right on the river (as were all of the campsites at this RV park).

After lunch I broke out my new fly rod and did a little fishing for the Grayling that inhabit the creek. I didn't have much luck in the afternoon but caught a nice Grayling early the next morning.

All in all it was a great way to spend my birthday.
