August 5: Linda, Scott and I did a hike up the new Winner Creek trail in Girdwood. From the pass we went down the other side and floated out the Twenty Mile River.

June 25: Tim Kelley and I went peakbagging in the Lynx Creek area of the Kenai Mountains. Center Creek gave us a good excuse to do some packrafting as well. Also be sure to look at Tim’s photos and comments.

July 30th & 31st was forecasted as cloudy with some rain. So it sounded like a good weekend to do a sport where you are going to get wet anyway – packrafting! I packrafted on the 20 Mile River and 6 Mile Creek. So I guess you could say I did a packraft marathon (20 + 6, except that I only floated about 18 miles total).

From June 2 to July 25, we had a constant stream of visitors. In fact, there were only three days in that entire 2 month period that we did not have family or friends visiting Alaska. It was a lot of fun. Here are some of my favorite scenery and wildlife photos I took while playing ‘tour guide.’

One of our goals for this summer was to knock the Kesugi Ridge trail off of our ‘to do’ list. When the weather for July 22-24 was forecasted as sunny, we knew exactly where to spend the weekend.

On Labor Day Weekend, we went to Colorado for a last blast of summer heat, but we also had some unexpected winter weather as well.
First, we headed to the Grand Junction/Fruita area for some hiking, mountain biking, and warm weather.
Then it was on to Aspen.
