With the up coming run next weekend 1/16 to Salcha Lodge, I run the route on QZI Explorer and come up 130 to 140 round trip (Gas at Lodge). We could cut some miles if we start at Northern Power instead of Compeaus. As we will be crossing the ice Bride on the end of south Cushman. Most of this run is across Army Land you may what to get a Army Receation permit which you can get from the provost marshal trailer at the front gate of Wainwright (no cost ). Myself I been logging in and out of Army land to show use. That is up to you. I hope to run the trail if it warms up this weekend to check trail and the crossing of the Tanana. This run will not be for beginers, and there may be some ditch banging (Road Ditch riding). More later.

Sorry to hear that.. :(
We'll take a look at a ride change Wednesday night at the membership meeting. It is also suppose to be 15 to 25 below Saturday next, so it may be a mute point anyway.
I do have a question, if you rode in from Salcha, how did you go ?
