This is a family ride along
the flat terrain which will takes up to Skookum Glacier where you will be able
to walk into the ice caves. From there we will go over to the face of Spencer
Glacier where we will see Seracs standing 4 to 5 stories tall. At Spencer Lake
we will find icebergs that area frozen in the lake, which you'll be able to ride
up to and through the ice formations.
We will meet at the double
pull out at MP 76 on the north bound side of the Seward Highway, just south of Placer
River. Be ready to depart at 10am. This is about a 90 minute drive south from Anchorage. Total distance we will ride is
about 45-50 miles so gas should not be a problem. Pack a lunch, water and your
camera.
This is a popular ride
destination for snowmobilers, the parking lot fills up fast. Plan on arriving
early to get a spot to park and get everyone together as a group.
As always check the ASC hot line 566-0272
for latest updates before departing for the ride.
