Beaver Point Lodge on Deadman Lake

Trail Clearing on the Tanana Flats

Our ride (Feb 4) out to Clear Creek Butts was blocked by downed trees from the wind storms so I decided to try and put a trail clearing work party together. Had 5 guys show up and it went well for what little we got done. Little in comparison to what needs to be done more »

A Two Bear Weekend

Drove the RV to the Hurricane parking area for four days to start raising the walls on the cabin and maybe get a start on the roof. Tyler and I drove down Wednesday night and it was an uneventful and beautiful drive. Clear skies and great scenery all the way down. Not many RVs on more »

Some video of the Tanana Flats and pulling trail markers

Per the rec use agreement between the military and Iron Dog, I had to go back through the Tanana Flats section of the race route and pull all the trail markers we set. So it is more as a “just because” then anything else. Not real exciting, just some trail riding and the trail is more »
