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.

April 29: This was one of those ski routes that I have drooled over for a couple of years. Always wanted to do it, but needed to go with guys who know more about glacier travel than I do. Tim Kelley and Tim Miller gave me that chance on Saturday. As always, you can also see Tim Kelley’s pics from the trip on his website.

April 1: After a few days of crust, the overnight temperatures this weekend warmed up and the skies threatened rain and snow. So instead of crust skiing, I headed north to the Willow multi-use trails.

After a week of 70 degree weather in Anchorage, we knew the end of the ski season was quickly approaching. We also knew that we needed one last good fix of the white stuff before we could move on to summer…So Bill, Scott and I loaded up the car and headed north to find crust at Broad Pass.

On February 19th, I tackled the Susitna 100, a 100 mile race through the frozen Alaskan wilderness. When I first heard about this race, shortly after moving to Alaska, I knew I had to do it. I love races like this.
