The memories flood back, we took a trip out to Alaska a couple of years ago. Follwed the Marine Highway up and eventually hired a car in Anchorage. Denali was a definate highlight, we saw lots of bears and even cubs. Wonderful place. Thanks for the lovely pics.

Excellent shots. The first one is especially refreshing. Was this accomplished last year?

Both are very nice - I like the mystery of the Savage River image. What type of scanner do you use for the slides?

Unfortunately, I didn't see as many bears as I would have liked :oops: But I saw a few ;) Anyway, I would go back there today if I could....

I used an Epson Perfection 4990 Photo. I found it very convenient....

Thanks. This trail was a beautiful place. A one hour trail where we saw pikas, marmotts, dall's sheeps, ptarmigans,.... and a great scenery!

Thanks!

I will add that in the second shot, the "fog" is in fact the smoke coming from forest fires some 250 km away :confused:

Very nice. We were in Denali NP in 2004, it's a great place. Wish we had done some hiking.

Thank you!

We've done 10 days of (mostly) hiking in the Kenai peninsula and in the Denali area. Such great places...

Wonderful photos. We've don two cruises and a month long road trip to Alaska. Can hardly wait for the next one.
Thanks for posting.


Bless the recently fallen and their family and friends.
I have a Cannon with me at all times. You can't take the shot if you don't have something with which to shoot. :rolleyes:
