Beginning in the summer season of 2007 a new tree will be planted in Alaska for each and every guest of the lodge in order to offset the carbon emissions that are the inconvenient result of travel. We look forward to a new forest of Birch and Spruce one day as a fond remembrance of everyone that has shared our adventure and as an example of what 2 folks in the wilderness can accomplish for the environment with the help of others. When we say "Thank you for sharing our adventure", we really mean it.
