Geocache Description:


Fireweed Valley

A tell tale sign of the switch from summer to fall in Alaska is the bright pink blooms of the fireweed. Fireweed is a blooming plant that literally covers the ground after a fire has swept through area with the best viewing season occurring around the middle to end of July.

This overlook will give the potential cacher an incredible view of an old fire burn and the regeneration of new growth that benefits both plant and animal.

As always, please be aware that the Dalton Highway should be treated with respect. Do not travel this road without extra gas, food, clothing, water, and a spare tire or two.

Enjoy!
