This is where Casey, Reef, and I spent the New Year, Fielding Lake public use cabin. The drive from Fairbanks was rife with wildlife sightings, including four moose, a herd of caribou, some type of grouse, a northern hawk owl, several black-billed magpies, and even a lone wolf which crossed the road on our drive back. We reached the cabin after a brief 45 minute walk along a snow machine packed road, with a broken plastic sled of firewood in tow. The woodstove worked almost too well, warming the small space to a balmy 100 degrees F in the middle of the night. The beginning of 2015 was a sweaty one. We drank a bottle of champagne each and awoke the next morning to a proper blizzard outside. Needless to say we were reluctant to leave, Reef most of all. I took lots of photos so the next week or so of posts will be devoted to more stories from the trip.
