This is an intermediate ride due to distance, side hilling and water crossing requirements. We will ride 80-100 miles. Departure is from the parking lot near MP 121 on the Parks Highway at 10:30 AM. Please arrive early and be ready to leave on time. We will travel via the Chulitna Bluffs Trail to the Tokositna Flats Winter Trail. At the appropriate river crossing we will leave the trail and ride up the Tokositna River where we have always encountered shallow open water crossings before we get to the glacier. There is some moderate side hilling and tree dodging to get around the river. We will retrace our tracks back down the river and trails. Bring your camera, extra gas, lunch or snack and water. Plan on arriving back at the parking lot around 6 PM.
