Alaska-bound!

I leave today for Alaska!
I’ll be returning on Monday, March 31st. Most of the time, I’ll be hanging out in Girdwood, skiing at Alyeska and hopefully hooking up with some locals for some AK backcountry goodness. I was hoping to ski with Kellie there, but I don’t think our schedules are going to mesh very well. Nevertheless, Kellie has been so kind to hook me up with quite a few locals whom will hopefully be able to find the time to show me the good stuff.
For two nights we hope to hike into a cabin on the Resurrection Pass Trail on the Kenai Peninsula. We’ve been to this system of cabins before, but only in the summer. This will be our first winter attempt. We hope to spend 2 nights at the cabin. We will be staying at the Juneau Lake cabin. We have not stayed there before, but we have been to the Trout Lake, Swan Lake, and West Swan Lake cabins. All are nice, rustic places. It should be fun!
As I said in a previous entry, I will try to post a Blog when I am up in AK, but I’m not sure how easy it will be for me to find internet access. At the very least, you can expect me to post some pics as soon as I return.
Happy Easter to all, and here’s to having some good times in the land of Northern Exposure!
