[Woodcarver] Diamond Willow in Alaska

[Terry Eby]

Dave, 

I have traveled the far extends of Alaska and diamond willow is found
through out the state. It is found along most streams where willow and
alders are the primary species. I have found it as far north as Fairbanks,
but not north of the Brooks Mountains or the Atigun Pass. The largest trick
to finding Diamond willow is to search far and wide. The Wooden Knot
souvenir shop south of Fairbanks sells raw sticks though the quality is
usually substandard.  My suggestion is to pick a stream wear lots of
mosquito dope and have a fun outing.

I was wondering if anyone had experience about what areas in Alaska Diamond
Willow might be found?

 

I asked around Sitka when we were there on a mission trip, and was told it
was not found in that area.

 

Blessed to be a Blessing,
