Drove to mile 49 of the Denali Highway. The first 21 miles were paved, and then we drove over 100 miles of gravel, pot-hole and washboard "highway." The first night we parked in a pull-off beside a large lake and across from a pond. We saw a lone moose across the lake, two swan, some herring gulls and a loon. Although the road was terrible, the scenery was outstanding.
