Restricted access to the park compels the Denali visitor to hop aboard one of the famous tan & green shuttle busses. Saturday we took the Tundra Wilderness tour, but never saw the “Great One” due to the clouds and rain. They say Denali is so big it makes its own weather. We believe it! The caribou and coyotes were out, but not the tops of the mountains. The 2 mile hike back to our car was windy and cold as the temps dropped to 46 deg. This effectively killed any chance I had to get the family excited about a hike on Sunday …although I have to say the guys rafting down the Nenana River looked a lot colder than we were!
Quote of the Day: (after hour and a half of Tundra Wilderness tour on the bus) "Rocks and trees, rocks and trees, is this all there is?" Yes, Suzie this is it.
