61 North Consulting LLC (formerly North Wind Consulting LLC) was formed in early 2009 to meet the growing need for experienced marine mammal observers in Alaska. We have worked with several Alaskan companies including QAP, West Construction, Northern Exploration Services, Apache Alaska, HDR Alaska, and CIRI. We've completed over 20,000 field hours placing land-based observers in and around Cook Inlet near. We have staff experienced in aerial and vessel based observation. Also, several of our techs have extensive experience in fisheries, wetlands, wildife, and botanical data collection.
