Denali Winter

I spent the last couple of nights up in Denali hoping for northern lights and wildlife.  Didn’t see any northern lights and very little wildlife, but did get to see this pretty sunrise yesterday morning.

We are now going through and editing and adjusting photos from this past summer.  Here is a cute moose calf from back in May.

During one of my bear tours, a group of Wounded Warriors visited the lodge thanks to the generous donation of flight time from numerous air charter operators, along with meals and guiding from the lodge.  I thought this scene of them emerging from the fog added to the mystic of these American heroes who have sacrificed so much for my country.

Early Winter

We ended the month of September with 26.43 inches of rain – almost an inch a day!  At you  can see by this photo from Saturday, our rain did finally end – but I don’t think snow is what most people were hoping when they wished the rain would end.  🙂

To be accurate, this is from a higher elevation, it didn’t actually snow in Seward – and it is beautifully sunny today!
