Alaska Zoo photographer John Gomes tells KTUU Channel 2 he was thrilled by the opportunity to photograph the Turnagain Arm bore tide at Bird Point this week. "It was a great bore tide for me," Gomes said, "This is only the second one I've seen -- I was impressed." Another good bore tide is forecast for just after 7 p.m. today (Wednesday), and then the likelihood of a good one will drop through the weekend. Check the Alaska Department of Natural Resources' bore tide forecast chart for more details and a schedule of good tides through the summer.
