Frost flowers and "white sand beach" ripples underfoot during a 38-mile traverse of the eastern Susitna Flats. Wild ice is endlessly fascinating, and no matter how much you see you'll always find something else to catch your eye. #wildice #nordicskating #madeinalaska

An unforgettable day of wild ice on the Susitna Flats. Unusually warm weather turned this wetland into a vast maze of channels, islands, lagoons, and lakes.

Skating overflow on an Eagle River slough, on December 30, 2024. Overflow can wreak havoc on existing ice, but once it freezes it can create an amazingly quiet, smooth skating surface.

An amazing skate on Hidden Lake, in the Kenai National Wildlife Refuge, on December 6. A strikingly warm, wet winter in Southcentral Alaska has led to numerous freeze-thaw cycles and countless opportunities for Nordic skating.
