Traveling with Andrew and Jen. Wherever I have knocked, a door has opened. Wherever I have wandered, a path has appeared." Alice Walker. Thursday, November 6, 2014. Back in early August, Andrew and I took a shuttle bus into the park and went for a day hike up Sable Mountain. It's about 35-40 miles out the park road, just past Teklanika River and Igloo Canyon. It was a glorious day! The fall colors were just starting to turn. Just a few miles into the park we could see that the big mountain was booming!

Traveling with Andrew and Jen. Wherever I have knocked, a door has opened. Wherever I have wandered, a path has appeared." Alice Walker. Friday, November 9, 2012. More beautiful weather on the northern side of the Alaska Range! Daytime highs have been ranging between 20 above and 10 below. Perfect weather for playing! Catching first light on the mountains. The High One, Denali. We are not the only ones that enjoy the snow. Boss LOVES the snow! Face plants and snow baths are common. Right now the water is...

Traveling with Andrew and Jennifer. Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined." Henry David Thoreau. On one outing over to Denali NP for a short walk he was stopped just a mile from the cabin enjoying the morning sundogs. In the photo above you can see the sun piercing through the spruce branches, and in the photo below you can see both sundogs and the sun shining over the ridge. Mt Healy behind the park sign. Looking down at the railroad tracks. Throughout his time ...

Traveling with Andrew and Jen. Wherever I have knocked, a door has opened. Wherever I have wandered, a path has appeared." Alice Walker. Sunday, March 24, 2013. Andrew and I were given a gift certificate for a cabin rental at Tolovana Hot Springs. This winter and we just cashed in on it! This the 10x12 frame cabin we stayed in. There are also a couple of cold water springs nearby. This is the one used for drinking water. It has an insulated box placed around it so it can be used year round. For the past ...

Traveling with Andrew and Jen. Wherever I have knocked, a door has opened. Wherever I have wandered, a path has appeared." Alice Walker. Wednesday, August 14, 2013. While out in Kantishna we took half a day to do some hiking in the Kantishna Hills. It was an incredible blue sky day, not too hot, and The Mountain was BOOMING! I love this high country, tundra walking. Great views and when there is a trail it is smooth sailing :). Getting higher up in the hills, bringing the Alaska Range into view. We saw a...

Checking out the dall sheep in the distance. First bear sighting of the day! Solo bear on the hillside munching on greens and berries. Beautiful views at Polychrome Pass. We loaded up...

Traveling with Andrew and Jen. Wherever I have knocked, a door has opened. Wherever I have wandered, a path has appeared." Alice Walker. Monday, October 29, 2012. Upon arriving home, we wasted no time at getting out and playing in the backyard. We were able to ride the four-wheeler fairly close to the Savage River. The thinner ice around a beaver pond stopped us. We walked the rest of the way and then spent some time along the river. We have such a beautiful playground so close by! What a beautiful area!

Traveling with Andrew and Jennifer. Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined." Henry David Thoreau. The Granite Tors.rocky outcrops that formed millions of years ago and stick up out of the hills in the Chena River Recreation Area (aka our backdoor). Andrew made a trip up to see these ancient rock pinnacles last weekend while I was working. He ended up spending the night under the stars and the northern lights at around -30! The Alaska Range dominates the background.

Traveling with Andrew and Jennifer. Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined." Henry David Thoreau. We have made it safely back to Alaska! We are doing a quick transition from Two Rivers to Healy, then to the BIG mountain next week! Boss was glad to see a little bit of snow left on the ground at his Two Rivers home, and we were thrilled to get some some wind in our faces with a ride around the neighborhood! Andrew, Jen, and Boss. Love what you do". Family Time in TN.
