We often think of entrepreneurs as older, experienced individuals with a war chest of experience to draw from and the ability to navigate the perils of developing and marketing new products and running fledgling businesses. As the world grows ever Alaskan entrepreneur Grayson Davey at work building the more connected and smaller, there’s more and more Alaska Survival Bracelet he designed. opportunity for entrepreneurs to rise and get new ideas up and running, no matter the age. Meet Grayson Davey. Alaska Paracord Designs (APD) was started in 2013 by Grayson when he was 12. Over the last four years the company has continued to enjoy year after year growth and employed 19 youth in 2016, with each of them The Fish ’n Flame contains the same survival equipment as the Fire Bug key chain but also includes an added Alaska fishing kit. earning around $15 per hour.

APD wanted to make products that you I asked Grayson a few questions recently. Outdoor enthusiasts should always have at least one way to make a fire on them at all times. Especially in Alaska’s backcountry, where it is possible to get stranded for several days before rescue comes. The ability to start a fire can mean the difference between life and death in that time period. Survival experts will tell you that in a survival situation, all that will likely be available to you is what is on your person. The three products made by APD, each hand-made in Alaska, were created to be kept with you when adventuring. For those that don’t want to wear a bracelet, the other two items come on a keychain so that you can attach keys if riding a snowmachine, driving an ATV or boat, or could be attached to a pack or life jacket. The keychains must be unraveled to find the tools inside, but the bracelet may be used to start a fire without taking it completely apart by pulling out the waterproof tinder and using a knife on the firesteel to make a spark and start a fire. Otherwise, the bracelet can be taken completely apart, the scraper removed and used on the firesteel as designed to start a fire. The paracord can be used to lash together a shelter, and signal for help or locate others in your party who may be on a different part of land. APD uses the best materials they can 6 www.FishAlaskaMagazine.com October/November 2017 October/November 2017 www.FishAlaskaMagazine.com 7 Alaska Survival Bracelets are available at retailers across Alaska. FA: Why did you start the company? GD: I started Alaska Paracord Designs because one of my dear friends took his daughter on a fishing trip in the Skwentna river, yes, IN. Their motor quit on them while they were going to get food. They threw the anchor over, but it didn’t sink. They soon hit a sweeper and it flipped the boat. They swam to shore, found themselves on an island and were stranded for three days without food, shelter, and of course.... no fire. Luckily they were rescued by a care taker who happened to see them waving their arms. When my dad flew down to pick them up, they said, “If only we could have started a fire.” That was when I decided to make a product that would be on your body while you enjoy Alaska, and make it possible to start a fire even when cold, windy, or soaking wet. FA: What new products do you have in the works? GD: Our main focus right now is improving the 3 products we have, by integrating stronger and louder whistle buckles, insisting on manufacturing our own military- grade fire steel, and most recently, ceramic scrapers which resist corrosion and give a much more intense spark from the fire steel.

  • 2012 MASTER ANGLER Highlights
    2012 MASTER ANGLER Highlights Time once again to celebrate successful anglers in In-Fisherman’s Master Angler Awards Program. Since 1975, readers have submitted records of catches of North America’s most popular fish species, by mail and on the company website, in-fisherman.com. This year, the commit- tee granted 544 awards, a substantial increase from last year. Clearly, readers are enjoying the easy on-line application process. In In-Fisherman, we’ve been highlighting outstanding smallmouth bass fisheries and this species dominated the program with 88 lunkers. Largemouth bass followed (68), with pike (61), muskie (41), and rainbow/steelhead (36), and walleye (33) next. Muskie entries have never before topped those for walleyes. To find hot lakes and prime times to fish them, peruse these records. For example, Bob Daly of Indiana has con- sistently picked a prime time to target coho salmon in Alaska, bagging the two biggest this year as well as the larg- est one in 2011, all from the Cinder River. Anglers landed three pike of 50 inches or more, fish of a lifetime: one from Alaska, one from famous Reindeer Lake and one from Minnesota’s Boundary Waters Canoe Area. And speaking of massive toothies, consider Ryan Marjama’s 58½-inch muskie from Leech Lake, Minnesota, caught on a sucker rig! For the scoop on this deadly pre- sentation, check the new In-Fisherman Pike & Muskie Guide on news stands or available on our website. On a smaller scale, give props for Arthur Huttemeyer Sr.'s 31-inch pickerel from Lake Hopatcong in New Jersey.

Vast expanses of areas covering 9.6 million acres (3.9 million hectares), wild, generally undeveloped rainforest and productive and Congress has designated 5.8 million acres (2.3 coastal ecosystems are the foundation of the region’s million hectares) of wilderness in the nation’s largest abundance (Fig 1). To many Southeast Alaskans, (16.8 million acre [6.8 million hectare]) national forest wilderness means undisturbed fish and wildlife habitat, (U.S. Forest Service [USFS] 2003). which in turn translates into food, employment, and The Wilderness Act of 1964 provides a legal business. These wilderness values are realized in definition for wilderness. As an indicator of wild subsistence, sport and commercial fisheries, and many character, the act has ensured the preservation of facets of tourism and outdoor recreation. To Americans federal lands displaying wilderness qualities important more broadly, wilderness takes on a less utilitarian to recreation, science, ecosystem integrity, spiritual value and is often described in terms of its aesthetic or values, opportunities for solitude, and wildlife needs. spiritual significance. Section 2(c) of the Wilderness Act captures the essence of wilderness by identifying specific qualities that make it unique. The provisions suggest wilderness is an area or region characterized by the following conditions (USFS 2002): Section 2(c)(1) …generally appears to have been affected primarily by the forces of nature, with the imprint of man’s work substantially unnoticeable; Section 2(c)(2) …has outstanding opportunities for solitude or a primitive and unconfined type of recreation; Section 2(c)(3) …has at least five thousand acres of land or is of sufficient FIG 1.

In 1925, also, at the request of one of the companies engaged in packing salmon in the Port Moller district, along the northern shore of the Alaska Penin­ sula, the work done there in 1922 was repeated. The results of these experiments form the basis for the following report.

Name of creator(s): Steve McCutcheon, P.S. Hunt, Sydney Laurence, Lomen Brothers, Don C. Knudsen, Dolores Roguszka, Phyllis Mithassel, Alyeska Pipeline Services Co., Frank Flavin, Jim Cacia, Randy Smith, Don Horter Administrative/Biographical History: Stephen Douglas McCutcheon was born in the small town of Cordova, AK, in 1911, just three years after the first city lots were sold at auction. In 1915, the family relocated to Anchorage, which was then just a tent city thrown up to house workers on the Alaska Railroad. McCutcheon began taking photographs as a young boy, but it wasn’t until he found himself in the small town of Curry, AK, working as a night roundhouse foreman for the railroad that he set out to teach himself the art and science of photography. As a Deputy U.S. Marshall in Valdez in 1940-1941, McCutcheon honed his skills as an evidential photographer; as assistant commissioner in the state’s new Dept. of Labor, McCutcheon documented the cannery industry in Unalaska. From 1942 to 1944, he worked as district manager for the federal Office of Price Administration in Fairbanks, taking photographs of trading stations, communities and residents of northern Alaska; he sent an album of these photos to Washington, D.C., “to show them,” he said, “that things that applied in the South 48 didn’t necessarily apply to Alaska.” 1 1 Emanuel, Richard P.

    SALMON-TAGGING EXPERIMENTS IN ALASKA, 1927 AND 1928 1 ~ By WILLIS H. RICH, Ph. D., In charge, Pacific Coast Fishery Investigations FREDERICK G. MORTON, Warden, :Alaska Fisheries Service U. S. Bureau of Fisheries ~ CONTENTS Page l'age Introduction _ 1 Southeastern Alaska, 1927-Continued. Southeastern Alaska, 1927 _ 2 Cape Decision _ 15 Icy StraiL _ 4 Clarence Strait- _ 17 Chatham Strait- _ 7 Conclusions _ 18 Frederick Sound _ 10 Uganik Bay, 1927 _ 18 Stephens Passage _ 13 Nicholaski Spit, 1928 _ 21 Sumner Strait _ 13 INTRODUCTION The series of salmon-tagging experiments in Alaska, which was begun in 1922, was continued during the two years covered by this report. In 1927 a number of ex­ periments were conducted in southeastern Alaska and one in Uganik Bay, Kodiak Island. In 1928 an experiment was carried out at Nicholaski Spit on the Alaska Peninsula. The experiments in southeastern Alaska were designed to fill in some of the gaps in the information that had been secured from previous experiments in thig district. The other experiments were designed to settle specific questions that had arisen in connection with the administration of the fisheries. .\lthough many details of the salmon migrations yet remain to be discovered, it is our opinion that the general features are now well enough known so that there is little need to continue general tagging experiments of the nature of those performed in southeastern Alaska in 1924 to 1927. It is planned, therefore, to use the method of tagging in the future only in connection with specific problems, such as those at Uganik Bay and Nicholaski Spit, which are covered by this report.
