On Thursday, December 29th, WISE partnered with Wrangell St. Elias National Park Service, Bureau of Land Management-Glennallen Field Office, Copper River Native Association, Alaska Department of Fish and Game-Glennallen Office, and Prince William Sound College for Winter Fun Day. The Wrangell St. Elias National Park Visitor Center was brimming with over a hundred happy faces belonging to families and volunteers, all on a mission to enjoy a day filled with exciting activities.
We skiied, snowshoed, discovered the adaptations of our local wildlife, investigated mammal hair through the lens of a microscope, made some fantastic quinzees, learned about snowmachine maintenance, made some adorable winter crafts, and drank lots of cocoa! Thank you so much to all our amazing partners, volunteers, and the many Copper Basin families who came out to celebrate!
