MAT-SU — Winter Family Fun Day sponsored by Alaskans for Palmer Hay Flats State Game Refuge has rescheduled its fifth annual event from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., Feb. 19.
The free fun takes place at Reflections Lake, Knik River Access exit at Mile 31.5 of the Glenn Highway, where participants can try cross country skis, snowshoes and ice skates, or walk the scenic 1-mile trail around the lake, learn about avalanche awareness and safety, and stay toasty with hot beverages and cookies by the warming fires.
APH works closely with the Mat-Su Borough, Alaska Department Fish and Game, R.E.I., Alaska Trails, Mat-Su Ski Club, North America Outdoor Institute, MSRMC and other partners to hold this National Winter Trails Day event each year.
