| Portage Glacier Weather |
Still raining - bummer. Actually it wasn't so bad when Kim took me to the $90,000 mt. bike trail course at Alyeska Resort. I think you'd really need to know how to bike and be a daredevil too boot to bike this trail: it is gnarly. The trail is steep in places and gets narrow with wood banked the corners. It's hard to believe there are enough bikers with the riding skills to make the course worth the investment.
During the training, the group went to Portage Glacier Visitor Center for more classes. We were asked to take a half hour walk on the Blue Ice Trail in silence to notice and observe various sounds, sights etc. I had my rain pants and hat so it wasn't too bad even though you could see the rain blowing in sheets as you walked. The trail is actually more like a bike trail than anything but is the location of the original Iditarod Trail as it came from the Hope area.
