Denali






I am feeling much better this morning. We are off on our nature tour. We are promised beautiful scenery, but as far as the animals, that was not promised. Denali is home to Mt. McKinley which is the tallest mountain in North America. It is 20,000 feet, we weren't able to see it very well, because there were clouds around the top.


We saw grizzly bears, moose, rabbits, ground squirrels and birds on the trip. So it was a great animal day. We met a native american that showed us some of the clothing he wears in the winter. It gets -40 degrees in the winter. I'm glad it was not cold when we were there:)


Tomorrow we go to Fairbanks for a riverboat tour. Until then........
