I met a couple of bicyclists heading the other way who recommended me going to Birch Lake where the rest of their group camped for the night. With only 65k (40 miles) it was early but it was late afternoon (because I began at noon from Fairbanks) and I was tired after battling the fierce headwind. Very friendly people about to finish 8 weeks on the road from Montana - I camped for free and they served me a delicious dinner...
