Denali National Park

Denali National Park was our next stop on our Alaska land tour.

We stayed at the McKinley Chalet Resort.  Fortunately, we were able to find a place to eat that satisfied everyone, including the picky eaters, Prospectors Pizza and Alehouse.

We took an eight hour bus tundra tour through the park.  Loni and I sat in the back of the bus, where we could cause trouble. During the tour we saw an artic squirrel, bears, dall sheep, caribou, a willow ptarmigan, and moose.

It was in Denali National Park that my favorite pictures of the trip were taken.  My youngest, who like me does not like to have his picture taken, decided to pose the same way in all his pictures, so I had the family go along with it in Denali.
