One thing I forgot to mention in my last post. I've been to Anchorage and Fairbanks. It is about 50 minutes between the two. Add the time to board/unboard, weather delays (gotta de-ice those wings), etc and I still think that flying between UAA and UAF during the hockey season is no worse than driving between say Ann Arbor (Michigan) and Kalamazoo (Western Michigan) during hockey season. I'd worry more about the toll on the team coming home from Alaska than I would about traveling between UAA and UAF during the weekend. If weather precludes you from traveling between Anchorage and Fairbanks then you're not going to get out of Alaska any way. :-) John H ([log in to unmask]) HOCKEY-L is for discussion of college ice hockey; send information to [log in to unmask], The College Hockey Information List.
