I’m looking to cross-country ski from Fish Creek out to Chamber’s Island, and wouldn’t mind others joining in. This is a fairly long trek, about 4.4 miles to the island, and about 3 miles to cross the island to the lighthouse & park areas where three caches are located, so this would be a day of fairly rigorous physical activity. I’ll probably bring lunch fixin’s along in a backpack to have on the island at the lighthouse.

I would like to do this on a Saturday in late January to mid-February when ice is thickest and temps and weather conditions are forecast to be relatively mild. (15° or higher.) There is a long tradition of people driving snowmobiles and even trucks out to the island, so I’n not too concerned about ice conditions, other than as a base for skiing on.

Of course, if we could get two or three snowmobiles together, that would be quicker…
