Sledding

The club’s run to Beaver Point Lodge was another good overnight trip. This year we took the Telegraph Trail out of Nenana on Saturday to the lodge and returned on Sunday via the Commissioner Trail. Both trails were well marked and packed if a bit windblown. Share on Facebook

Not this year. We left Altrol’s parking lot around 9:00, thank you Dave Bridges for letting us use your lot to park and headed to the Ice Bridge, all went good to Clear Creek Buttes with one or two little side trips trying to decide which way we wanted to go. Share on Facebook

A few weeks back we rode the Gilmore Trail down to the Chena Flood Projects and back and had to do a lot of ducking through some major brush along the way. So Larry put together a trail brushing crew and we brushed back a fair amount of the trail yesterday. Seven sleds showed up more »

As always the Iron Dog is a week of riding and working for me. Took the week of the 17th March off of work and spent every day riding, setting the track, marking the trail and working on the North Pole Fuel Point. This year was fairly un-eventfully as far as setting the trail went. more »

It’s Monday and I’m already whipped. Started the weekend riding with Destiny’s bow (Cody) and his dad (Rod) to try and get them a caribou for their freezer. So Rod says I know this area we can get into zone 2 of the Caribou registration hunt. Remember, I already filled mine and Trish’s tags in more »

Flat light and a great ride in the Tanana Flats. Started out with 18 sleds for the run into the Flats and up to Clear Creek Butts with Paul leading. Although this ride had scheduled Larry as our leader, Paul lead and kept us all from getting lost on the trails. Share on Facebook

This was one of the most versatile trail rides I’ve been on in a long time. Eight of us started out from the pull out at 4 mile Gilmore Trail Road around 10:15 in the morning. Plan was to see if we could make it to Chena Lake’s without 1) getting lost or 2) having more »

What a great day it was for a run to Chatanika Lodge and a nice lunch. Although the temps in town were -18 to -20 below zero, it was a cozy -3 below at Two Rivers Elementary School when we all meet up at 10:00 AM. Share on Facebook

Beautiful day for a ride with the temps in the upper teens to lower 20’s, couldn’t ask for anything better, well maybe a bit more snow would of been nice, especially in the upper elevations were what snow we did get was pretty windblown. A 17 minute video of different segments of the ride. Share more »

The weather was holding nice at a -10 below or warmer so I decided to take a run on Wed, Dec 26th, out to Chena lakes. I also wanted to chat with John Schakley, the head ranger as he is retiring as of the 31st. John’s been a ranger at the lakes for 26 years more »
