Our Chena Ridge Cabin
Update: After giving Lise the hard sell, we are going to move into this cabin! It's owned by a friend of my friend Jeremy who took me out there with our friend Anna as Lisa's representative (for the woman's view of the access drive and interior conditions). much to my reflief Anna loved it, and I am sure that Lisa will too.
It's about 9km from campus and has great views out to the south, sitting about 10 C degrees warmer than town and above the ice fog that forms in Tanana Valley in the winter. Plenty, OK not plenty, but room enough for visitors looking for the real Alaskan experience (bears not included).
And here, between Holland (US Marshall Sands to you) and me, is the newly installed bathroom. Plenty of cabins up here have no running water - to avoid pipe-freezing probelms - but this palce is luxuriously appointed with a 5000 litre tank, flush toilet and shower.

Very picturesque Dan - and practically equatorial in climate. You'll need a guest room for the people beating down your door to stay.
Worse clash than DC's orange tie combo - I'll bet the interior designer had never envisaged the "colbolt"...
technically, the new jacket pictured is 'sapphire', gazza. and yes, there is definitely space for visitors chris. when you're up for some winter camping ;-)
I'm particulary impressed by the enormous bear skin that graces the mezzanine.
Lisa tells me that you're keeping it. It could make a nice jacket.
Where did the photo of the bear skin go?
