Today is actually Thursday 24 July and we have left our camp this morning, where we stayed for 3 nights. Cold nights. During those days we've been gone into Denali National Park, where I have seen bears, mouse, caribou, golden eagle. On Tuesday I saw 10 bears, although a mother bear with 2 cubs twice. I saw them again yesterday, when we were a little hiking, too.
Today we have been driving the Denali Highway. Along the road there is just fantastatic views and I have tried to make a lot of photos. Unfortunately I can't download them yet. Later. We are going to sleep inside tonight at McClare Lodge. And just some minutes ago I finished a canoe tour along the river, one which you usually only see on tv, with just spectacular views around you. There I say one mouse and one caribou.
Tomorrow we will move on to real wilderness and stay there for 2 nights.
The weather here is really cold this year. All the mountains have a good snowcover already which has come within some two weeks. Just fresh snow also. All Alaskans are also astonished over this cold summer. Last year the first snow come in September. So this is kind of challenging, but I'm happy to have packed my ski underwear etc with me. I don't know if I'm gonna need t-shirts at all on this trip. We'll see.
So long for now.
