Our Hike is again Thursday @ 10:30. Hope to see you there. It's in Peter's Creek area.

How to get there:From Anchorage, take Alaska HWY 1 north past Eagle River- Take the exit toward Peters Creek - 0.2 mi
- Turn right at Ski Rd - 0.7 mi
- Turn left at Whaley Ave - 0.2 mi
- Whaley Ave turns slightly right and becomes Tulwar Dr - 0.1 mi
- Turn left at Seika Dr - 0.3 mi
- Turn left at Solleret Dr - 0.3 mi
- Solleret Dr turns right and becomes Thornton St - 0.2 mi

SPECIAL NOTE: The hiking trail is called Big Peters Creek “Chugach State Park”. You’ll travel down this trail about 50 yards give or take and you’ll see a small trail on your left heading into the woods. Bear mountain hike is not well published, but the trail is pretty well established up this hike.

Hello,
I just moved to the area and found your blog on Craigslist. I have one child-6 years old. I know your group is for tots, but I saw some older children in the group. Do you often have parents with older children? I would be interested in meeting up with you all. When do you post the directions for next weeks location?

Tiffany,
You are more than welcome to come! The hiking group is just a kid friendly hiking group, no specific age. And the hike that is this week will have an older/younger (or easier/harder) split as well. We would love to have you come and meet some other families and kids in the area. 10:30 on Thursday. The directions are in the next post.
