Logistics
- A bit out of the way, yet still attainable Saturday meetup out on the Turnagain Arm.
- An alternate location in a pullout 656 meters from the actual point in the inlet has been designated.
- About a 25 minute drive from midtown Anchorage.
Intended Attendees
- Orbatos, Nutsenmai, and Nycti are planning on stopping by at some point after 4pm.
- Yos has a wedding to attend and sadly will not be able to make it.
Execution/Aftermath
- Orbatos, Nutsenmai, and Nycti's GPS was only able to connect to one satellite, and we didn't print out a map, so we had to go off of memory to find the correct pullout. After a couple stops, including Beluga Point, we found one we thought matched up fairly well just after the mile 107 signpost. Took a few pictures and were on our way back home.
- Confirmed the location as being the correct one upon our arrival home by referencing satellite maps and our recorded drive data.
Photographic Evidence
- Orbatos, Nutsenmai, Yos and Nycti's Saturday Expedition
Orbatos at our alternate location. The graticule is somewhere behind him.
Nutsenmai complete with cute hammie shirt
Turnagain Arm
The graticule, about half a kilometer out there in the water.
There were lots of neat jet trails that day.
