OMW! What a day we had yesterday! We boarded the most goregous glass top train where we had wonderful views the entire trip. On lower floor, we dined on a fabulous breakfast while we tried to find moose. The end of the trip into Denali National park was AMAZING! I can't wait to post pictures.
After we left the train, we boarded a bus for an 8 hour trip into Denali National Park on the Tundra Wilderness Tour. The weather cleared up beautifully on the train and then we ended up having one of the rare days that we could actually see Mt. McKinley from the very beginning of the day until the end ~ only about 10% of visitors get the clear views that we saw yesterday! We drove within 35 miles of the mountain & it was fantastic. How blessed we felt to be part of that day. We were also fortunate enough to see Dall Sheep, Golden Eagles, tons of Caribou, moose, fox, rabbits, and then at the very end of the trip... 2 grizzley bears (momma and cub)! It was so exciting! We then found our way back to the lodge & collapsed into bed! What a day!
Today...we are on our own this morning and are just taking it easy. We board the train again at noon where we will have lunch and make our way down to Talkeetna. This evening we have a float trip planned.
Have a wonderful day ~ I'll check in when I can!
