July 26, 2007

This morning we were on the shuttle bus before 8:00 AM for our trip to mile 80 of the park road. It only goes to mile 85 and they told us the last 5 miles were not worth the cost or time. Along the way we were many miles closer to Mt. McKinley than the previous day. This shows the gravel road we traveled in the shuttle bus. The bus would stop for any animal sighting and we would all try to look out the windows and take pictures. It also stopped several times at rest areas so we could get out for a few minutes. This picture was taken at a rest area. During the day we were able to see grizzly bears, moose, caribou, Dall Sheep, fox, and a Golden Eagle.
