FUEL OUT-FISH IN
In 2006, the State of Alaska listed Big Lake as
impaired for petroleum hydrocarbon pollution
above state water quality standards. The primary source of hydrocarbons, gasoline, to Big Lake is motorized Watercraft —boats and personal use watercraft.
GHC supports the ongoing Water Quality Improvement effort in Big Lake by discouraging re-fueling of watercraft on the lake shore, encouraging the use of absorbent pillows or pads in bilge cavities, draining bilge water away from the lake shore and hosting volunteers distributing educational materials.
Iditarod, The Last Great Race
​
Big Lake is home to several Iditarod Mushers and their world class Sled Dogs. Many local mushers offer kennel tours and rides! Meet the mushers, veteran race dogs and the newest puppies!
