this is why
we spot a porcupine
a moose with her calf
the Nenana river
the Mc Laren summit at 1245 meters provides snow and cold
we turn south on the Parks Highway, and have to stop for a moose crossing the road for better pastures
Mount Denali is hiding behind the clouds
the Alaska Range comes into sight
a bald eagle rests on a treetop
Nowadays it is a very quiet, not well maintained road that is closed in winter.
Since
there is hardly any traffic you have ample time to enjoy the scenic views and look out for wildlife.
Approaching the George
Parks Highway, and weather permitting, you will have a splendid panorama of the snow covered mountains of the Alaska Range. You might
even spot Mount Denali.
In June 2007 we travelled the Denali Highway, enjoyed the views and spotted a moose with her
calf, a couple of foxes, a porcupine and an eagle.
the Gulkana River, close to Paxson
this is the view once you enter the gravel road past Paxson
ma checks the surroundings for danger, grizzly bear are known to patrol this area
a fox along the road, we are completely ignored
yes, the grass on the other side of the road is definitely greener
a hitchhiker?
