Meet The Ellis Family

Kirk Ellis, life long resident of Nabesna. A son of pioneering parents who moved to Alaska from Texas in the early 50's, Kirk and his brothers grew up in this remote area, developing the strength and skills it takes to live and thrive in the wilderness of Alaska. Home schooled and self taught, Kirk is a licensed bush pilot, guide, IA aircraft mechanic, carpenter, and jack of all trades. Although Alaska has gone through many changes since he was a boy, Kirk and his family have adapted with those changes, and now enjoy sharing their beautiful home with visitors to this great state.

The eldest of Kirk and Genie's three children. Isaac fell into the support roll for the business early on; he serves as the "tec support" for the Nabesna area. A collage graduate and licensed aircraft mechanic he specializes in the paperwork side of the business. Isaac has a pilots license, but lately has been too busy with office work to do much flying (or anything else for that matter). He also manages this website.
