Re: Dec 28
Trail open from Gilmore to mine road. Hill toward Cleary wind blown (shovel would be nice to have ) crossing mine road could be a hassle. Hey D, I called the mine today and asked them to have to road crew take out the berms at the road crossings. They said they would. They've always worked with us ...

Re: Update on Ester trail closures
I've known Geoff since he and I were on the Borough Trails Advisory Commission together. He is still a member. He is a hard working dedicated person who has put a lot of time and effort and I suspect lot of his own money into this effort. Any contribution that the club could make would be money well...

Re: Chatanika Ride, November 30.
The temps up here are really dropping, 10 below right now, and it's getting windy. The forecast is for 30 below in the valleys tomorrow so I'm cancelling this ride.

Re: Sat, Nov 23 Ride
I haven't been on the trail to the Lodge yet but understand there are lots of trees down on it. Also Mud Hill is bad. We've spent the last 3 days installing new drive sprockets on the groomer so haven't even dug out our sleds except for the Skandic WT and the lights aren't working on it. Also you ca...

Re: Chatanika Auction For Kid's Christmas Party/Grooming Fun

Re: Chatanika Auction For Kid's Christmas Party/Grooming Fun
They never lost power. We did, but got it back about 5 yesterday afternoon. We all have generators so no problem. We had a small emergency. The beer started getting warm so we ran an extra cord to the beer fridge.mit wrote:Do they have power or are they using the Generator?

Re: Loading Ramp @ Cleary Summit
My next door neighbors who drove home from town about 8 last night say the roads weren't bad. I just drove down the Fairbanks Creek Road to our mailbox and it is fine.

Re: Today at Skiland, Cleary Summit
Any word on the snow up at cleary now? Thought I might come up and hunt some grouse but not if there is to much snow. Thanks for any update Dave Hi Dave, We're in NY State right now but it looks like the snow is gone. Check it out here: http://www.dot.state.ak.us/iways/roadweather/forms/SiteSum.htm...
