during my snow cat adventures i've shared a lot of pics with you all of the country side here on the seward penensula so i toook the olld cj-5 out on a shake down trip after sitting all winter i also took along a camara we traveled up the buster creek trail wich crosses the nome river and heads back to the flambeau and eldarado rivers there is another leg that follows the hill tops north and was the old road to taylor and deering. we traveled in about 10 miles and i let the boys take a dip in one of the creeks water temp hadto be about 35 degrees but that dosn't stop kids from wanting to get wet just like the dogs i also took some photos of the tundra that are all different colors now with flowers in bloom aeras are turning purple and yellow with flowers.
