Flying to the Kapushka
River is a splendid flight. Volcanoes dot the horizon and
the vast taiga wilderness
is a rare sight.
Once we land there is yet
another surprise. We get to soak in a healthy hot spring.
The Kapushka River is very
wading friendly it has a nice gravel bottom with strewn bolder's. This
fish-kingdom is wide flowing and shallow. Gentle rolling mountains
flank the shore of the clear stream.
Robust Rainbows live here
as well as Char. Kings, Silvers and Chum Salmon all spawn in this
magnificent river.
This is where we coined the
saying "Rainbows like mice" We had an unforgettable experience of
watching rainbows rise for hours to catch mice. What a fun way to spend
several hours in the Russian Wilderness on a remote river
