We did some hiking along Ressurrection River, had a good view of Exit Glacier off in the distance.

Took a cruise through part of the national park, saw some cool wildlife and a glacier calving (chunks breaking off) - very cool site.

We spent the day fishing for Halibut and then after a fine dinner of fresh fish, we stood outside and watched some bald eagles hunting for food and soaring - a pretty amazing sight.

We drove from Anchorage to Seward Alaska and stopped at a few glaciers along the way. We also photographed some of the local scenery and wildlife.

We took a bus tour of the park, learned about the animals, the land and saw some pretty incredible sights.

Mount McKinley is the highest peak in North America (20,320
feet). It is a huge snowy mass, flanked by five giant glaciers and countless icefalls. It dominates the horizon from as far south as Cook Inlet, 200 miles away, and as far north as Fairbanks, 150 miles away. Its steep unbroken south slope rises 17,000 feet in twelve miles. Five major ridges extend from the summit, and many spurs and buttresses extend from these.

The mountain is increasingly known by its native name, Denali, which means The Great One in the Athabaskan language. We viewed the mountain while driving from Anchorage to Denali, and also stoped in Talkeetna to catch a "summit flight" to the mountain.
