| Description | It isn’t every day that a 50-year-old message in a bottle washes up on the shores of Western Alaska. But that’s exactly what happened for Tyler Ivanoff near Shishmaref on Aug. 5.
“I was just gathering firewood; everyone was just kind of picking berries. I just happened to stumble across the bottle, and I noticed it was a green bottle and had a cork top. Not really cork, it was a tight cap, and I could see inside the bottle there was a note.”
Ivanoff found two pieces of paper inside.
“My kids were pretty excited. They were wondering if it was a pirate’s note or treasure,” Ivanoff said. |
