The “Caribou Hills Cabin Hoppers” is a Non-profit
volunteer organization established in 1987 to promote, develop and
secure safe recreational trails for public use. Our common goal is to
preserve these trails for future generations. To be enjoyed summer and
winter by hikers, hunters, bikers, backpackers, cross-country skiers,
dog mushers, snowmachiners, skijoring, and anyone who desires to enjoy
our great public lands. These are our members. They come from all
walks of life. We promote safe and courteous use of the trails for the
enjoyment of everyone. Our fundraising proceeds are used to maintain
our equipment, develop safe trails, and provide public access. We also
participate in community programs and other charitable activities. We
are a volunteer organization, so please join us in our efforts.

| The Snowmobile Trails Advisory
Council (SnowTRAC) needs your help to decide where “your” snowmobile
registration dollars should go. Your responses will allow us to put
grooming dollars where you, the riders, want them. Please go to this website and complete the SnowTRAC Survey. http://dnr.alaska.gov/parks/grants/snowmotr.htm This is very important to fund snowmobile trail development and maintenance, as well as snowmobile safety and education programs. Please forward this link to all snowmachiners you know and support your riding area! |
Please respect private property and stay on the trails unless you have permission to cross.
If you don’t know who’s property you are on, stay off!
Littering has also become a recent problem, if you “Pack it in, Pack it
out”!
