The Mat-Su rivers and lakes are home to the spawning grounds of chinook, coho, sockeye, pink, and chum salmon. The area is home to 31 state parks and campgrounds. The 23,000-square-mile (60,000 km 2) Matanuska-Susitna Borough (the Alaskan equivalent of a county) governs the Mat-Su Valley. According to the 2010 Census, the borough's population is 88,995, a 50% increase since 2000. The Mat-Su Valley was originally inhabited by Athabaskan people and was explored by Russians in 1818.
The gross weight of the 2015 Chevrolet Suburban is 7300 lbs..
Our 25' Chaparral cuddy weighed in at 4800 lbs. The trailer (dual axle) I believe was approximately 1100 lbs so we totaled approx 6,000 lbs for boat, motor (454) and trailer. But let's add in 80 gallons of fuel and probably 300 lbs of gear so we were towing approx 6400 lbs with a Ford Bronco (small block V8).
