The Big One

After all that time in the National Park and no mountain views, Denali finally came out for us the day we left the National Park and went into Denali State Park.

There it is. If you like to call it Denali or Mt. McKinley, the highest mountain in North America!!!

I hope someday I will get closer than this to the mountain.

We were lucky to get these views. The next day Denali was socked in again, preventing us from seeing the mountain and taking one of those small planes that lands you on the glacier. Well, the planes were still flying but we talked to some people who’d just been and asked them how it was. They said ‘OK’. The flight was about $200 bucks a person. I’ve heard in clear weather it’s incredible but for us to spend $400 I expect more than OK, so we didn’t do it.
