Floated the Gulkana several times. The Gulkana is a fun trip, but hardly a destination float. The Klutina, now that at least ads a little excitement, and way bigger fish. Problem is, you gots to be a man to get up to the lake and make the float. There are a million opportunities up north. Do some research, go out on a limb, find a river, any river that drains into the copper and you'll probably have a fun trip. Why float a gaper-river like the Gulkana?
