We really enjoyed North Pole and Fairbanks, but it's time to move on to other adventures. We got our first glimpse of Mt McKinley on our way to Denali National Park. At this point we were 140 miles away.
Here we are at Denali National Park. Looking forward to our Jeep Safari tomorrow on a special nature trail.
First, we went to the visitor's center where this display showed us the wildlife we might see here. We saw a short movie and a program on the wolves in the park.
We drove in the park about 11 miles for the first viewing of Mt McKinley. It's so hard to see because it blends in the sky, but it's there. At this point, we are still 90 miles away. Mt McKinley is over 20,000 feet high, making it the highest mountain in North America.
