Stevensville Censes Date 13 June - Vainwright, Alaska At 1050, standing at T2-2.0, and glassing a 360° turn with a radius of ¼ to ½ mile, I could see 14 jaegers - mostly pomarine. At 1145, standing about 2000 feet east of the cemetery and 1000 feet west of stake 10.0 of T4 and glassing a 360° turn as above, I could see 17 jaegers - 3 of which were definitely long tails - the rest probably pomarine. 15 June, Barrow, Alaska In the area just S. of the campiles back of ARL, several times I glassed the terrain for 360° around me with 7 x 50 binocs and I saw no jaegers. In this area last year in the third week of June there were many pomarine. Maker and I shot some here.
