  This is a big lake kayak camping trip. We will paddle across the lake to the cottonwood trail. The plan is to follow the glacier valley up to the summit of Cottonwood peak. This will be a big adventure. We have to cross the lake which means have a “beam” exposure to the wind. Because this lake can have series winds, participants should plan on either a late return to Anchorage on Sunday, like mid night, or even having to delay our return to Monday.
