Volunteer for U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service drowns on Alaska Peninsula. A 24 year old Massachusetts man was drowned while banding gull and tern chicks when he disappeared into the glacial silt laden waters of Mother Goose Lake, located in the Becharof Lake/ Alaska Peninsula National Wildlife Refuge in King Salmon, Alaska. Josh was attempting to catch and tag a pair of mew gull chicks in the shallow waters of the lake, as he followed the chicks, the ground dropped off suddenly. Water filled his partially rolled-down hip waders, and he disappeared rapidly into the lake on 10 Jul 1997 at Anchorage, Alaska.
