My family and I love to adventure into the outdoors whenever we can. Whether it's taking a trip to our cabin at Summit lake or a quick adventure just outside of Fairbanks, we love to 4 wheel in the summer and snow machine in the winter. Some of our favorite spots to take the boat to and drop some rods in the water are Lake Louise, Paxon, and Summit Lake, where the fish are always tasty. In the winter, we are always for drilling a hole in the ice to see what we can stir up. In the summer we start pulling all the tents out. Sometimes it's in our back yard and other times it's in the mountains. Either way it's relaxing for us. My son is almost 9 and he is currently racing Snocross here in Fairbanks and absolutely loves it! When it gets too cold to enjoy the outdoors for long periods of time, we spend time at home building model planes, cars, and trains. When the opportunity arises, we enjoy racing RC cars indoors with the Fairbanks RC Club at the old Bus Barn. Through all of our adventures, we have never been wet or cold. Big Ray's has outfitted my son since he was born and we have nothing but the highest praise and rating of the Acvit8 line. It is amazing! Myself and my husband have switched out a lot of our high end gear for Kavik over the last few years and we are so please we did so!
