    Huh, metric measurement says otherwise but that's probably just a mold issue.

    Anyone going dip netting on the Kenai this year? I'll be camped out on the beach for a few days starting the 14th. Coming back the 17th if anyone wants to stop by for a beer or something. Just look for the red DC taco with a crappy black shell on it.

    Hey fellas, I'm heading up to your neck of the woods tomorrow, just wanted to see if there was anything that is a 'must see/do' while I'm up there. I'm flying in then driving to Girdwood for a week. We have a place to stay there but aren't necessarily tied to staying there the whole time. Any suggestions are welcomed! :)

    Well if your into hiking and site seeing I would go to exit glacier in Seward. You can walk right up next to it. Possibly to while your in Seward you could go fishing

    We will definitely be visiting Exit Glacier. My wife has been out there before, I've never been. I'm hoping the weather turns, looks like a lot of rainy days ahead.
