Trip Report: Murphy Dome to Chatanika

#1 Post by JDPLWITT »

Pair of us ran to the lodge from the Gravel Pit on Murphy Dome on Saturday. Was not great but better that I was expecting - melt had evened out some of the bumps so we were able to hit it good and fast. 1 hour and 15 minutes each way. Only questionable area may be the Alyeska Road from the piepline to Elliott Hwy. They have plowed it so if we get a few more days of warm temps and sun it may be down to gravel.

Could use some snow as it was packed and hard with little powder left.

Pipeline was still in great shape.
