We've been above freezing for a few days. The yard has little snow left and the drive is a sheet of ice.
Our son drove up from Anchorage on Thursday and said there was about 6 inches of new snow from Eureka to Glennallen and then freezing rain. Said the ice was hitting the windshield and freezing on impact, and like you said, the drive is a sheet of ice. Got much better closer to Gakona.
Caribou are moving too. My husband drove through 10 miles of caribou on the road in the Mentasta area. We had caribou in the yard 3 days ago.
