Laura tries out the classic tracks. Emily cruises across the snow.

Mrs. Huffy skate skis across Headquarters Lake...with a garbage bag attached to her belt. Leave No Trace.

We took a skate ski to Headquarters Lake near the Kenai National Wildlife Refuge headquarters this afternoon. We had a picnic on the edge of the lake and the weather couldn't have been any better. We had a great time going around the edge of the lake. In fact, it was a great day for a...Headquarters Lake skate ski.
