Tanana Flats, Feb 9th

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

57 Mile Steese into the White Mountains, Jan 12, 2013

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.
