Food? Check. Bear spray? Check. And the grocery store store sells rifles and shotguns with a 5 minutes background check!
Koko Imai Love it!

Kids were up with the Sun. Oh wait, the Sun never went down! Here we are skipping rocks on Willow Creek, just north of Anchorage. Headed to Talkeetna today for an 8-person propeller plane flight around Denali, including landing on a glacier!Read more

Best. 2 hours. Of. My. Life. We had a snowball fight on a glacier. Enough said.

Day 9
Byers Lake
June 15, 2017 in the United States ⋅ 🌫 17 °C
Got tired of busy, gravel parking lots passing for campgrounds. So we left a day early from Talkeetna to do half the drive to Denali.

Stopped at Byers Lake, an Alaska State Park campground. Now THIS is what camping is supposed to be. Check out the view out the RV window!

And no traffic noise at all... Simply beautiful.

Tomorrow it's off to Denali National Park.....Read more

Denali...

Long drive but we made it. The most spectacular scenery you can imagine. We saw Moose drinking on the side of the road on the way too!

Staying at a very special campground, 20 miles into the park ... Tough spot to reserve and completely off the grid. Should be awesome!Read more
