On Saturday we went of two hikes in Denali National Park. Weather remains beautiful and in the low 80's. On a hike near the Savage River, Sarah was almost run over by a bull Caribou while soaking her feet in the stream.
Sunday saw Sarah, Jason, and Joy hiking the Mt. Healy Overlook while Don stayed at the RV getting it ready to move down to Talkeetna on Tuesday. Jason made it to the top (see pictures) as Sarah and Joy were content to make it up to the tree-line for a look around.
Monday found the four of us on an ATV tour (a first for Joy and I). It was great fun as we traveled the back country.
Tuesday we moved south to Willow, AK about 13 miles from Talkeetna. Sarah and Jason went by Jeep touring while Don and Joy took the RV down the Parks Highway and setting up in a new location.
RV Report: The Parks Highway was mostly smooth driving, with minor construction underway.
Diesel fuel was $ 4.54 gallon in Healy, and $4.16 gallon in Talkeetna today. Gasoline was $4.24 gallon in Healy and $ 3.93 here in Talkeetna.
