Camping in AK

18 years ago

Hey All

I'm going to AK the middle of June. I have a rustic cabin in the Chena River Recreation Area. Very Rustic, no water, pit toilet bring everything I need including camp stove.

Has anyone here been up in that neck of the woods and if so any tips.

Also I'm going to ship most of the camping stuff there. Has anyone had experience doing that on any of their trips?

Thanks

Bob

Not that anyone cares (thump thump thump - is this thing on?!) but I just talked to one of the company's reps and she said it's not non-stick but rather powder-coated black. Which is bad enough (gross) but at least it just gets cooked to death then just kinda disappears over time as the whole thing gets blackened/seasoned over time. Or so I'm telling myself. Non-stick would be truly ridiculous...

Fun to have a little brush with nature. Hope you were upwind. Did I mention that my last camping trip was...oh, about 65 years ago? (Camp Fire Girl's camp with sleeping tents on wooden platforms and 'baths' in the lake.) Can you tell that I didn't take to camping?

Went to a renaissance faire with my sister this past weekend, and these gals did a comedy/singing act. Was hilarious! This poor guy was a good sport, they pulled him out of the audience. Here's a quick video I took of part of the show: Here is a link that might be useful: washing well wenches
