TRAVELING ON THE MCKINLEY EXPLORER







Beginning with our sunrise boarding in Fairbanks to the layover in McKinley Park and finally Anchorage, the McKinley Explorer was our special adventure on wheels. Those dome cars sure allowed us to see some impressive views. Land travel comprised the first 7 days of our trip and we got some of the best weather (we were told) for that time of year. A “long” shot of Denali, estimated at around 75-100 miles away, was a surprise treat. Lee spent lots of time in the open air between cars taking pictures and enjoying the exceptional weather. Jane was there practicing her camera technique too. Jane, how are you doing? Let me know if you want me to share. I can do that for others with stories to tell. And who could not forget the “Moose Wave!” You all can check here at a later date to see if anyone reports in.
