SUMMARY:Alaskan Wilderness Retreat
DESCRIPTION:Caribou Creek\, Talkeetna Mountains\, Alaska\n \nWHO SHOULD ATTEND\nIf you are a man that desires to embrace the rugged Alaskan wilderness and have a deep encounter with God this retreat is for you!  Fathers are encouraged to bring their sons and other young men who are 12 years of age and older.  Please leave your pets at home or they might become part of the food chain! \nWHAT TO EXPECT\nThe weekend retreat is a study in contrast… the best of both worlds.  As men we tend to be extreme.  While we like our guns\, airplanes\, and ATVs\, we also embrace the solitude and quiet of nature. A place where we can hear the still small voice of God. And it is for this purpose that we come to the wilderness\, to seek God in a deeper way\, while in the company of other like-minded men. During the weekend we will meet together every morning and evening for inspirational messages\, testimonies\, and music.  It is our hope and prayer that each man that attends the retreat will experience God and leave a better man! \nTRANSPORTATION\nLogistics require that unless you have your own transportation\, you must attend for the three days. Transportation options include:  \nHiking \n\nIf you are planning to travel to camp via one of the two trails that lead to the camp\, please use the buddy system or leave a travel plan with someone for your own safety.  Weather conditions will dictate whether the trail down Alfreds Creek or Squaw Creek will be the best one to take. Contact Fritz Plier @ 376-9179 if you need direction or if you would like to tag along with another group.\nHiking: 13 miles one way on a 4-wheeler trail (shorter/rougher than trail below).  \n\nATV \n\n4-Wheelers: 22 mi/1.5 hr trip on 4-wheeler trail.

This is not the airstrip to practice your newfound bush pilot skills. Please monitor 122.9 and announce your intentions and position when within five miles of the airstrip. \n\nChartered Flight \n\nFly-ins: $300 per person round-trip; $150 per person one-way.  If you need to be flown into camp\, contact Mike Meekin at Meekin’s Air Service well in advance of the retreat to schedule flight into camp.
