Expect temps to be in the upper teens on most days (though it can get to -10 or even -20 in Anchorage, though that is fairly rare. When I rode in Fairbanks, it was -38 but it is a dry cold so it did not feel as bad as a typical day in Michigan at 10 above!

I am planning two trips to Alaska this year. One over Christmas to teach and do some riding in my off time and then later around the beginning of March to hook up with Chugatch Powder Guides and do some cat ridings, maybe heli if the money is there. I am flexible on timing so if you decide to go for Alaska, we might be able to coordinate this like a mini meet. I will be driving up to Fairbanks for a few days again this year as well.

Mini meet would be tight! I think I will be probably leaving friday march 13th
(friday 13) But most likly will be going saturday the 14th. But I will be there in the time frame of march 13 thew possibly the 23rd. I still need to get all my reservations and everything figured out also. My parents are paying for this one so they have more control of it than I do, because we have a timeshare deal and im sure they will be wanting to use that, but who knows. Ill let you know the exact dates when i will be there when I find out, it should be pretty quickly.
Alaska or Switzerland?
