Hello Everyone,
Sorry I missed last
week’s newsletter but I was elbow deep in oily
=
groomer parts on Thursday and it slipped my mind.
Not a ton of n=
ew and
exciting things to report this week, but here
=
are the basics.
=
12 miles
up the valley by the big rock.
Trail now goes around the
=
lake of overflow, runs along the river bank and con=
nects
with the
= original trail a couple of miles from the rock.<= o:p>
Seven Mile Lake Trai=
l, is in
and groomed, not a ton of snow on
=
that side of the valley but still a beautiful trail=
to
ride. There are
=
three spots on that trail that have little creeks cr=
ossing
them so
=
look for the stakes marking those hazards.
Denali Hwy Trail, is about as nice as it gets. The snow has been =
=
staying on the section from 9 mile to 15 mile, and the=
rest
of the
=
trail is a freeway. Some small drifting directly in =
front
of Tangle
River Inn and at the
guardrails at Tangles, but otherwise the trail
=
is smooth and flat. Over by 110 mile there is some
serious
=
overflow coming across the road, but you can go around =
it in
the
=
north ditch.
This is the time of =
year
where everyone is out playing or working
(dog-mushers trainin=
g) so
keep your eyes open and please use
=
caution.
We look forward to s=
eeing
each one of you in the near future.
