I have been under the weather for a few days. I have compiled packing lists and will gather all the items and see if they will fit on the bike. Sleeping bag, tent sleeping pad and new camp stool all fit in large waterproof bags. They should pack well on the back of the bike. Valley will sew old surgical towels into storage packs for tool kit. I installed a 4" PVC pipe on the lower front end of the bike and will attempt to fit as much as possible inside it. I still have a large waterproof bag to put all my clothes in.I t will be interesting to see what makes the final lists.
All food and cooking items will go in soft side bags.
If you don't know, there is a forest fire burning about two miles from the top of Murphy Dome. The fire response folks had a meeting at the Ken Kunkel Center next to the Goldstream store. They gave out a lot of information about evacuation plans if the fire srarts spreading east.
The Fairbanks Daily News Miner has been providing great stories about all the fires that are burning around us. Read www.newsminer.com.
