Hig flashes a rare smile in "Entry Fee Creek" in the middle of Southeast Alaska's Misty Fiords Monument. The easy traveling through ferns, elderberry, and goat's beard in this meadow was the exception in a valley otherwise lined with a thick tangle of brush. We crashed through towering forests of spiny devil's club, and salmonberry thickets so dense it was nearly impossible to plow through them. After a seemingly interminable climb from Walker Cove, we arrived on a beautiful slope of muskeg meadows, naming the creek "Entry Fee."
