Denali

Sondra saw her caribou without a fence between her and it

A little glimpse of a walk we took through the canyon

Sondra got to see her moose up close and personal

It is cold up here

Denali/Mt. McKinley in background. What an awesome sight to see.
Just a little taste of what we are seeing with the wildlife and scenery. Pictures could never do it justice. I am sorry for the heat the rest of you are suffering, but it is cold up here. This morning 48. Got nicer during day and the next few days not supposed to get below low 50s. Denali is beyond amazing. We took a bus tour, hiked some, went on a raft down the river, a little more than a float trip this time. Saw lots of wildlife including 6 grizzly bears and a wolf which our guide said no one hardly ever got to see. We were among the 30% that come here and actually get to see the "mountain". hard to imagine that people climb that every year and it never gets above 10 degrees all summer, and most of time in minus with wind blowing like crazy. Unbelievable trip. Tomorrow the big city "Anchorage".
