The Trek starts Thursday and there aren't any locally rides in the calendar.

Anyone interested in riding the Whites ?

Thinking about Chatanika Lodge for breakfast and then ride out of there or maybe go to 42 Mile Trail Head, will decide over breakfast

Wish I could go John, but flying out of town until Saturday afternoon. The Whites were great a couple of weeks ago - did the 100 mile loop from Wickersham. Trail was groomed much of the way. Have fun.

Yup, figure this would be a easy ride day, have breakfast at 10:00 and go from there.

How many miles where you thinking on riding John? Need to know whether or not I need to rig the sled to haul extra gas. :think:

We are not leading the ride.
We are meeting at the Fox gas station at 0900 and trailering to the south entrance of the white mountains (mile 57) riding to Mount prindle.
I have not been on this trail so I don't know if it's a long or short ride.

Tanana river is now super smooth riding. Last weekend the wind blown snow filled in a lot of the sharp bumps and we keep getting a little more snow. I'll be out this weekend.

Monday for the Iditarod, some folks are having a campfire down past Rosie creek by the old access trail. Iditarod should get there around 11 am. Anyone is welcome.
