one of the best restaurants in town started offering to-go meals that you heat up at home and the portions are HUGE we got the bbq ribs, baked beans, dill potato salad, and honey butter cornbread this time 🤤

what’s the cost of beef in your area? in sitka, alaska a ‘value pack’ of rib steak is $20.79 USD per pound this is why traditional foods are so important to alaska native peoples, because we can’t afford to feed our families with these prices

now would also be a great time to consider donating to or advocating for the alaska village of ambler, a rural community that has been without running water or wastewater since a cold spell froze their pipes in february that’s 9 months without running water… www.gofundme.com/f/the-native...

as the state of alaska gears up to celebrate another ‘alaska day,’ it’s a great time to remind people that russia never owned or had the right to sell stolen indigenous land

soaking in the sunshine today. there’s dead salmon everywhere—on the beaches and deep in the forest—feeding the land 🌱

CeeJay Johnson-Yellow Hawk @adriftalchemist.bsky.social · 10/09/2026

can any of you fishery nerds explain to us the impacts of this heavy rain on all the salmon eggs in the creeks? took this photo tonight at starrigavan and there’s whole trees washed down the creek into the bay. makes me wonder how all the salmon eggs are doing in this intense rain

In the vast universe of "things I didn't expect to see but here we are", this past summer, wildfires in Nunavut burned more than twice the area that burned in the Yukon Territory: Yukon Territory: 5,800 ha Nunavut: 14,400 ha #Canada #wildfire @evaholland.bsky.social @jkanadisk.bsky.social

haha best boat dogs! poppy was skittish at first but started enjoying it near the end of our bear adventure

CeeJay Johnson-Yellow Hawk @adriftalchemist.bsky.social · 31/08/2026

the salmon are so plentiful that the sows were plucking them right out of the water and feeding their cubs it was also my first time seeing a sow with 2 cubs fish next to a sow with 3 cubs. they were itty bitty

CeeJay Johnson-Yellow Hawk @adriftalchemist.bsky.social · 31/08/2026

we went looking for bears this afternoon and found over 20! including 6 cubs this playful pair (possibly mating?) splashing around in the water started our adventure off on a high note and it just got better and better from there!

our governor tried to get a $16 billion tax break for a proposed natural gas pipeline recently—while dozens of our alaska tribes face threats from climate change and must relocate either now or in the near future cost to relocate? $200m—$600m EACH where’s the special sessions to address this?

CeeJay Johnson-Yellow Hawk @adriftalchemist.bsky.social · 31/08/2026

we allow outside and foreign corporations to extract our natural resources with huge tax breaks while our own communities struggle from related effects of climate change instead of more tax incentives, we need to implement a tax for responding to climate change related emergencies and disasters

i think the time has come for alaska tribes to start discussing fuel compacts with the state in an effort to excerise tribal sovereignty, lower fuel prices for our communities, and generate revenue to fund our services and programs

beading formline is waaaay easier than drawing it 😮‍💨 got a lot of room for growth here, but if it helps me make awesome regalia in the future, it’s worth the effort and practice (my first hand drawn formline piece)

you’re not allowed to harvest these salmon. they’re for the bears, birds, critters, and forest they’re spawning and making babies!

no wolves and no black bears… but the communities about a 20 min flight from us have black bears, wolves, and porcupine we only have brown bears. someone once told me we don’t have black bears because the brown bears eat them but idk we have lots of whales, sea otters, and seals tho
