Help us pick some real names for the Mirror Lake Singletrack!
Come out to Matanuska Brewing in Eagle River this Sunday February 10th 6:30pm and help us pick some real trail names for the Mirror Lake Singletrack!
Yep, the colors were always meant as a temporary thing. Our Grand Opening is June 1st, and we need to get our maps and signs ready.
We’ll be drinking beers and brainstorming upstairs, so please stop by!
