Gone to See North America Road Trip. Day 21: Alaska Railroad – Anchorage to Spencer Glacier. (Day 7: Nikonians ANPAT 9).
The group took Alaska Railroad train for a day trip to the Spencer Glacier in the Chugach National Forest. The glacier is only accessible as a “whistle stop” on the train line. A (sort of) time-lapse video of images from the day including Albert’s size 13 boot. A bit confusing and jerky because I was using two different cameras and lenses.

Gone to See North America Road Trip. Day 19: Denali National Park, Alaska. (Day 5: Nikonians ANPAT 9).
We separated into four groups, and our group of eight road one of the Park Service buses on the only road into the National Park. We stopped several times since Mount Denali was visible through the clouds. Not as many animals as yesterday.
Gone to See North America Road Trip. Day 18: Denali National Park, Alaska. (Day 4: Nikonians ANPAT 9).
We separated into four groups, and our group of eight rode one of the Park Service buses on the only road into the National Park. We stopped at Stony Hill Scenic Overlook to view Denali with some amazing lenticular clouds. We saw lots of animals (Dall Sheep, Red Fox, Grizzly Bear, Coyote) either on or near the road. Some so close, I had trouble focusing.
