This would be our last day of shooting. We returned to Mt. Ballyhoo but this time we went to Fort Schwatka which is on the northern side of the island. They gate the road at about a half-mile up so we had to walk the rest of the way up a road. It was about a mile to get there from where we parked the car and it starts at about 800–900 ft elevation. It’s big and spread out more than the map suggests. We started our hike at about 9:00 a.m. today since we knew it wouldn’t take us too long to get to the good stuff, and with the sun coming up at about 10:30 we had plenty of time. This was our best day for weather as well. The sun actually came out for an hour or so. It was almost strange to shoot in such conditions. It was colder though, about 35º on average and the winds were very calm, maybe 5mph at the most. Fort Schwatka was one military installation that was built fortified in reaction to a Japanese invasion in 1942 but after that hardly ever saw any real action in the war. There’s old barracks and other buildings to photograph with the landscape and several gun batteries and mounts to frame up too. And I got a lot of that. What impressed me most though was the sheer beauty of the place as the other parts of Unalaska Island surrounds you. To the east you have Summer Bay and Split Top Mountain along with Constantine Bay further up north and Princess Head just beyond that. To west there’s Broad Bay and Eider Point with all the mountains along there as well. If we look back to the east you have the mountains I just talked about and then Beaver Inlet and then another mountain range. It’s amazingly beautiful and really sets you back. Several times I just stoped, took a deep breath and just soaked it all in.  (review the images from this area) We ended up spending way more time up there than we initially planned. And I was getting exhausted again. We started hiking at about 9:00 a.m. and it was getting close to 3 by the time we figured we’d better think about heading back. That was six hours of straight hiking and shooting and over 7 miles in total of wandering about. It was so amazing but I was getting low on calories and needed to stop. I didn’t want to though. It was just too good. But with the cliffs at about 800 ft to the ocean I figured I’d better play it safe and not flirt with disaster. It was such a rewarding time though. And I’m so glad we got up there on this day as we saw the weather forecast and knew it would likely open up for us. After a brief hot chocolate break in the apartment we contemplated going up Bunker Hill again but decided not to do another hike. We found a great little place facing Unalaska Bay and photographed the water crashing in on the rocky shore as the sun set. Sixth Day We didn’t shoot at all today. We woke late (about 7:30 a.m.) and finished our food stuffs. Then we packed. Then it was off to the Museum of the Aleutians which didn’t open
