Meet Kristine
The owner, Kristine Route, grew up in a small mountain community
of the Colorado Rockies. She came to Cooper Landing in 2010 for
an internship with Alaska Rivers Company and moved there after
completing her undergrad at Colorado State University in 2011. Kristine
joined the volunteer service program, AmeriCorps, in 2012 where she
served for four years and obtained her Master degree at Alaska Pacific
University.
Kristine (Krissy) at grandma's house pretending to use an old camera.
My first camera! Given to me by my Grandmother. It might not have had any film in it, but I sure pretended it did. It wasn't until I was 12 when my parents gave me multiple disposable cameras as a test to see if I could handle a real one. On my thirteenth birthday, my brother gave me a Kodak Advantix that I used for many years. Once the digital age began my parents gave me Kodak Easy Share as a Christmas Present. I thought it was the best camera ever complete with its own printer. After I proved to my folks that I was responsible and had a passion for capturing moments in time, they upgraded me to a Canon Easy Share. This began my love of Canon products. I now have the camera and numerous lens I could only dream of as a kid, the Canon Mark III.
A fun fact about Kristine is that she is extremely patient. Patient enough to take her cat on outdoor adventures with her. She takes Yoda backpacking, kayaking, paddle boarding, cross-country skiing, etc. You name it and the cat is probably with her. Why doesn't she just get a dog some might ask? Well one day she intends to, but don't think for a minute that the dog will be replacing the cat. She will just have two adventure buddies to go with!
