What's Happening Now?

DJTA invites you to come hike with us! For National Trails Day we are hiking Donnelly Dome on Saturday, June 6th. The hike starts at 11 a.m. with hikers proceeding at their own pace.
From Delta Junction, head south on the Richardson Highway. About 17 miles out of town between mile posts 250 and 249 on the right (west) side of the highway are a military flagpole and signs as well as a recreation info kiosk. This is the Dome Road turn off. Drive Dome Road about 2.5 miles to a gravel side road that leads to a gravel parking area at the base of the Dome. We will meet up and start the hike there.
This event is open to the public. Everyone 16 and over is required to have a military Sikes Act Permit (SAP) and sign out either the day before or the day of the hike. SAPs are available through the internet at https://usartrak.isportsman.net/ and cost $10 for 12 months. A digital copy on your phone is acceptable. Check in to Donnelly East area 531 via the website above or by phone at 873-3181. By accessing the USARTRAK system, you will know if the area is open for recreation or if it has temporarily been closed for military training. If the military closes the area, our backup hike location is Coal Mine Road. We would then meet at the Richardson Hwy turn out to Coal Mine Road at 11 am.
For the hike bring water, a snack, an extra layer (it is usually windy at the top of the dome), your SAP card, and wear sturdy shoes or boots.

Our next board meeting will be in conjunction with our annual meeting May 27th at 5:30 at the Sullivan Roadhouse. Dean Lambert will be the guest speaker and will be sharing some of his wildlife trail camera pictures.

Future board meetings on the 4th Wednesday at 5:30 pm at the Mt. McKinley Bank Conference Room:
