Geocache Description:

We were travelling out the Steese Highway and couldn't believe finding ice still in July.  The temperature out was an awesome 87 degrees and right there on the side of the road, Ice packs...  Go figure?


Was out caching with friends, FiremanAK and MamaNanook, and there had been miles of road before coming to any additional caches. We were thinking that this would be a great place for a cache. And a great place to stop since we were riding for a while.

Needless to say, we were amazed that at this altitude we would find ice packs on the side of the roadway. We could see on the mountain tops in the distance the white caps and frankly not feeling ready for the upcoming winter. I do recall a trip out Denali National Park and seeing an amazing formation of ice on Fox Creek. Amazing then, amazing now. You just have to love the mountains!
