What's new with Anew

Spring is in the air can you feel it?

As you read this, Washington spring is in full swing.   The lowland flowers are out, creeks gurgle with spring run off and the sun is making its return to the Pacific Northwest.   If you don't dream of the outdoors this time of year, check your pulse.

The Time is now!

Book your Spring and Summer kayaking days today! You just pick the date and we'll do the rest.

Notes from the Field

Eklutna Ski Traverse

April 15th - 19th, 2006

By Adrienne Sherred

I woke up from a dazed sleep and slowly peeled my face off the airplane window as I heard the words, "Please bring your seats to their full, upright positions.   We are now beginning our descent into Anchorage."  I rubbed my tired eyes and squinted through the double pained window into the midnight sky.  As my vision came into focus, I felt as if I must still be dreaming as I looked into a sea of peaks, glowing in the light of a full moon.  I elbowed Kat to make sure I wasn't hallucinating in my exhausted state.  She peered over my lap and confirmed what I wanted to know; I had finally made it to Alaska.
