Travel Advisory: Those driving the Seward /Sterling Highway southbound on Thursday or no later than Friday can expect heavy traffic patterns in southbound lane as the hordes descend upon the Kenai Peninsula for the Memorial Day Weekend.
To compound the problem of heavy traffic flow, you can expect long periods of delays due to slow moving expeditions. Reportedly, Ranger Bill started moving north from Lonesome Duck Ranch on Saturday, May 16th at first light. Moving north via the Utah/Idaho Trail into the Pacific Northwest. Expects to re-supply in the last U.S. outpost crossing into Canada north of Puget Sound and follow the Frasier River Trail north to the Alcan Trail. Expected to arrive in LA on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, or a couple days on each side of those day. Will possibly come riding into the HITW on Saturday, May 23rd. Anyone for a "Ranger Bill Pool", buck a shot at the nearest time (hour) and day?

@2000 5/18/09: Ranger Bill on R&R in the big city on Puget Sound. Will rest up, stock up, and cross the border on Wednesday morning. Knowing his rate of travel and not having to maintain a log book I will project that his ETA at HITW between 2000 Saturday and high noon on Sunday.
With fair winds and a strong horse, he might be arriving as early as Friday, 20th, by 10 AM. Or, could be as late as Monday at 7 PM.
