On A Clear Day You Can See Denali
Crystal clear (cold, too) morning. We drove out about 12 miles to the first view point. Denali in splendor. We explored the bus and visitor center and then a steep hike down to Horseshoe Lake. It is a classic ox-bow lake that was once the main bed of the river, Nenana. Picturesque and serene place. New bird number 30 on the hike an Alder Flycatcher. On the culinary front, another excellent meal of the salmon Tom caught. Alaskan wild salmon really is different.

Big speech to the Moose of Denali is tomorrow. I am trying to get a large crowd together so I am offering a nice tundra water infused lilly root and winter berry beverage that BrrICE is preparing. The Chief of Ceremonies is arranging a salute to the Candidate, really nice touch. And, I almost forgot - not really, just a surprise, but the gorgeous Moose, Ms McKinley, I met and wrote to here in the park is joining me on the platform. What a day tomorrow will be.
