After a four-month stay at the bottom of the Kenai River, a pickup has been recovered -- and it runs.


I grew up in Kenai, Alaska, and now live 3 hours north of there... the Kenai river is one of the largest (volume wise) in Alaska and IIRC the US. It's not the "normal" river color, it is glacier blue because of the lake that it feeds off of (the lake is huge and has been glacier fed since who knows when). Kenai gets its name from the Indian tribe that once lived in the area, though Kenai itself was a Russian community. Kenai is known for its fishing, the biggest fish pulled out of the Kenai river was almost 100 pounds! :flirt:
