Crossing Knik Arm to Fire Island


Are these people crazy or what !!!

About 20 members of the Anchorage Adventurers Meetup Group, with a handful of others tagging along, trekked across the mudflats from Kincaid Park to Fire Island and back Friday afternoon. Most hikers crossed the mud barefoot; a couple brought rope and life preservers, and one latecomer carried snowshoes. The group appeared to near Fire Island in just over an hour, still before low tide, and returned just before 6 p.m. on the same tide cycle.
