Yesterday, we drove to Hatcher's Pass (north of infamous Wasilla) and did some hiking up by the old Independence Gold Mine. It was COLD, and snowy, and gorgeous. My favorite moments were picking blueberries and watching a red fox walk by, all grace and unconcern, just 5 feet away. It was nice to get to know some new friends a little better, and to be up in the mountains and out of Anchorage for the day.
