This is a continuation of the GeocacheAlaska! Hike & Cache event series.  Thanks to eaccipi for allowing me to host this one, and to bring the series to the Fairbanks area!

------------------------------------------------------------------

Join me on a loop around Isberg Recreation Area!

We'll meet in the parking lot at the posted coordinates at 8:30 and give attendees until 9:00 to show up and socialize. Depending on group size, we will hike as one unit or split into smaller groups. 

This is meant to be a social hike, and hikers can go at whatever pace they'd like on the trail! Come make some caching friends, or say hi to the ones you already have. The intended route (marked in purple on the map below) is a 2.5 mile loop, but can be adjusted shorter/longer depending on the group's caching desires. 

I have created a bookmark list *HERE* with caches along the loop and in the general vicinity for your convience/interest. We will find what we find, but we can't find something if we don't know it's there! 

Note: This is a hike in winter. It is up to the cacher to make sure they have appropriate gear for any hike in Alaska (gloves, hat, buff, layered clothing. Depending on ice, microspikes for traction?) 

As always, please take your own personal safety seriously and don't come just for the smiley. Those who are considered a vulnerable population are recommended to continue staying home. Facial coverings/masks are strongly recommended. Always sanitize your hands if soap and water are not available. And keep your distance from others who are not in your immediate household!
