Folks, BLM is asking for comments on a proposal by Borealis Basecamp to expand tour operations in the White Mountains National Recreation Area. According to the press release, the proposal would allow them to double the number of snow machine tours they are doing, as well as begin seasonal scenic helicopter flights five times a day as low as 1,500 feet above ground. BLM will accept input until August 28 on the environmental assessment evaluating a special recreation permit. So if you have input, do it soon! Don

Linda is heading back to Florida soon. We are gathering at Lat 65 Brewery Tuesday at 5:30 pm to see her off. All are welcome to come and enjoy an evening out. Carol

He graduated from Michigan State with a BS in Computer Science with a minor in Math and then hitchhiked around Europe. He traveled the US working as a DJ and doing day labor. After working in a bottle factory, he decided to go to Notre Dame Law School, chosen because it had the most overseas programs. That worked out when he met Niesje Steinkruger in Tokyo. They married, came north in 1975, and worked for Julian Rice and Lloyd Hoppner. After a decade with the firm, Roger had his own law practice for 19 years and then served as Vice-President and General Counsel for the University. He has been active in Fairbanks Rotary and the Rotary Youth Exchange. While President of his club, he set up the “Books for Babies” program. Roger has judged Science Fairs, participated in “Guys Read,” and coached students for the math competition “Mathcounts.” Roger loves being on the floor with his grandkids, whom he taught to call him “Cool Guy.” He worked on the “Lost Alaskans” project and has spent a decade copying and digitizing early Alaska State court case recordings from the 1960s. Fairbanks Tall Timbers Lectures are made possible by the generous contribution from Explore Fairbanks.

I am also very interested in the condition of the woodcutting road. My husband and I tried it in a front-wheel-drive SUV on a rainy day and decided it was too dangerous for our vehicle.

Carol Lokken is leading a hike down to The Golden Eagle in Ester on Sunday, July 21st Meet in the parking lot of the Golden Eagle at 1 pm to coordinate the car shuttle. It’s an easy 2 hour hike. We hike down to the Golden Eagle, we can cook a burger, (The Eagle sells the fixings for the burger and provides the grill, you cook your own) have a drink and listen to some local music. Or you’re welcome to depart after the hike. Well behaved dogs are welcome.

Karen C is leading this week's social hike. We will meet by the smaller ski hut at 6:30 pm. Bring bug spray and water. We will walk the trails for about 2 hours. Kid and Dog friendly. There will be other users on the trails so bring a leash for your fuzzy buddies (and kids if necessary ;-) ) Birch Hill Recreation Area,101 Wilderness Dr, Fairbanks, AK 99712

Sorry for the late notice…blame the weather. We are going to look for two borough trail signs…one in Two Rivers and the other on the Mike Kelly trail. We will meet at the Sourdough gas station on the corner of Farmer’s Loop and Steese Hwy at 1:30 pm today. Please RSVP so we will try not to leave without you. Bring rain gear.

According to my source in North Pole, the weather doesn’t look very pleasant for this afternoon. So, we will CX this potluck and reschedule to a more sunny and dry day, hopefully next weekend. Perhaps next time I will try to rent a pavilion so we can enjoy the day regardless of the weather. However, I am up for a hike today if anyone is interested.

We will hopefully be in the same area we were last year, along the lake on the left side where the boat launch and rental booth are. It’s potluck, at 1 pm. Hopefully there will be some music, so bring an instrument if you want to play. There is lots to do…people can kayak, bike, rollerblade, swim, etc. See you then.
