News Flash

Monday evening the wind kicked up and blew the clouds off the mountains above Anchorage: termination dust. Throughout the week the snow-line crept down. 3,000'. 2,000'.  Flurries at 500' by Saturday.  

Typically this is when we head up Archangel Road to the Lane Glacier. Well the state closed the road early this year. Balls. Plan B: meadow skipping and rock tagging at Hatcher Pass. It wasn't pretty but it was soft and fresh and it's only going to get better.

Get some fresh batteries in your beacons because it's on.
