Windfall - the Fishing Sailboats of Bristol Bay

Lake Clark National Park & Preserve

Description

For nearly a century, sailboats powered the fishing industry in Bristol Bay. At the mouth of the Kvichak River, Bristol Bay is one of the largest salmon fisheries in the world, and the protection of the fishery is one of the major reasons for the creation of Lake Clark National Park, at the headwaters of the Kvichak.
