August 2006 Noatak River Float Trip
This slideshow features many of the highlights from the Herriott brother's 19 day float trip on the Noatak River in Northwest Alaska. Much of the 435 river miles of the Noatak lie in Gates of the Arctic National Park and Noatak National Preserve. The Noatak River basin is the "largest undisturbed watershed in North America." This Wild and Scenic River is also designated as a UNESCO World Biosphere Reserve.

The bulls in the back of the pack were very impressive. Several of them may have been of trophy caliber. At this point in the trip (i.e., still within the bounds of the national park and about 400 river miles from our destination) we were only able to enjoy observing the animals and unable to consider harvesting one of these magnificent creatures.
