Back to Western Talkeetnas

Headed up to Hatcher with Kristin and Dawson, her yellow lab. Drove up Craigie Creek toward the Lucky Shot mine, which brought out the redneck in me as I navigated through way too many nasty rocks and boulders, bashing my skid plates and running boards. I even got to pull a full size Dodge pickup out of a nearly hopeless mess with 6 partying Valley kids...in the middle of the night way past bedtime.....grrrrrrrrrrr. Took 3 great day hikes from the car camp covering a bunch of the country and stitching together the whole area from a different perspective.
