This will be a Family ride; mostly on groomed trails.  There's room to play off the trails.  We will leave the mile 121.5 parking lot on the Parks Highway at 10:30 am.  The earlier you arrive, the easier to get a parking spot.  We will go north on the Chulitna Buff Trail to connect to the new North Loop Trail through Denali State Park.  If you want to park at the mile 127 or 131 parking lots (both are on the west side of highway), you can easily access the CBT and wait for us to catch up with you.  (From mile 127 cross the Highway and head east about a 1/4 mile to connect with the CBT.  From mile 131 head west about 100 yds to connect with the CBT). From the North Loop we will go west/south to the East West Express then on to the Forks Roadhouse and Kenny Creek Lodge, then back on the EWE to the CBT at mile 121.5.  Entering the lodges is optional; we just want you to know where they are.  This will be about a 65 mile ride.

As always check the ASC hot line  566-0272 for latest updates before departing for the ride.
