p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Alaska in September....


We recently returned from our first trip to Alaska. It was a wonderful experience, both for the wildlife and for the scenery. The trip was built around three days of camping at Katmai NP where Brooks falls and the largest brown bears in the world roam around, but we also spent a bit of time in Anchorage, Seward, Whittier and of course Denali. We got really lucky with the weather as the only rain we had was in Katmai (rarely sunny there). We were fortunate to be able to see Mt Denali (McKinley) in all its glory. Overall the landscapes/scenery were fantastic, with early fall colors the order of the day. Here are several pictures from the trip. I am more of a wildlife guy, so C&C are welcomed as always.

Denali National Park is my backyard. You captured it just fine. I love "the mountain" and can see it from near my house, but Polychrome Pass (image #3) is a special place and your image is quite nice. No one who visits Alaska can resist returning. There is a lot to see and do. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks gang.

Jim, we felt that Denali was indeed a very special place, as was just about everything we saw..including the bears at Katmai NP (will post a few bear pics to the nature/wildlife board separately). We were there during a great time of year. September is our favorite month to travel with greatly reduced crowds and very good weather just about everywhere. Speaking of which, we also understand that we were very lucky to have had the weather we did. Really the only rain we had was in Katmai, and that wasn't too terrible, just damp and drizzle. Also, no mosquitos in September in AK which also made things more enjoyable. I can imagine that the crowds you get during peak summer make the experience pretty different than what we experienced. We were at Denali right as it was closing, and went out onto the Kenai fjords with one of the last boats still operating out there.

Anyway, wonderful place. I would like to go back. It is hard to capture the raw beauty of the state.

Richard, That's a nice looking set! On the sunset image the bottom tree branch is a bit distracting to me. Nevertheless, its a great looking set. Thanks for sharing.
