Bus trip to Denali, July5

Are we lucky or what?  There is only one day of each month that Mt. McKinley is visible and guess what?  We hit it on the nose!  It is soooo far away and you will see a white cloud looking peak on the picture.  But is so awesome!  A 20,000 ft. high mountain, the highest in North America. We had a wonderful trip into the park.  Of course we couldn't cover all 6 million acres, but the wilderness is beautiful!  You can really feel your littleness there.  It is a pure and wild place.  This a habitat for large caribou, moose, and grizzly bears all of which we saw.  The view of the bears were so small we could only see through the binoculars.  It is amazing that these animals have long been adapted to survive in northern life.  The rivers are so young and so laden with pulverized rock that they can wander across their broad, flat valleys.  We were in awe the whole time we were there.  This is a winner!
