Ice Condition UPDATE!!!

There is no open water at or around the Tripod. However, there is a 15 foot wide channel of flowing water along the south bank of the Tanana river. About a half mile upriver from where the Tripod sits, there is a large open channel with broken ice chunks accumulating, churning and breaking the larger ice sheets apart. The Tanana river ice sheet has become visibly decayed but with no pools as of yet. Half a mile downriver from the Tripod, the Nenana river is flowing freely into the Tanana river. This is a strong indicator that the Tanana river will be breaking up and flowing freely any day now.
