Hot May & Byron Glacier

Last week has been quite hot for May in Alaska - we got up to the upper 70s last weekend! Anticipating this great, but hot, weather, I realized I wanted to be outdoors, but not dripping in sweat. So... we decided to do one of our favorite trails, Byron Glacier. This trail is notoriously chillier than most since it ends at the glacier itself. It turned out to be the perfect hike for such a hot day - and my mom got to come with us too!

On the drive down, we stopped and took some photos at Beluga Point.

Hiking in mid-April!

Spring came extra early this year, to the point of being able to go out and hike early on! In mid-April, our life group started "Friday Night Fitness", doing easy walks/hikes Friday evenings as a group to get active and enjoy the great weather. The inaugural hike was at the Eagle River Nature Center.
