First Sighting!

Greetings!

This is second hand, but there was a sighting of a "black fuzzy
caterpillar" near the cross-country ski trail on the University of Alaska
Fairbanks campus yesterday (April 10th) afternoon. We still have roughly
70% snow cover, but I obviously need to get out in the woods and tempt
the bears with a bait line.
