SO MANY ANIMALS!! We’ve seen so many moose, caribou (one of them only had one antler), and bunnies, plus a (huge) grizzly, and a surprising number of porcupines (8-10). Not all animals are pictured 🙂 I didn’t expect to be able to see so many animals, especially with only one road through this massive park, AND with that road only being accessible for the first 30 miles, due to the Pretty Rocks Landslide. Private vehicles can only go the first 15 miles, after that, you have to take one of the park’s busses, we did that once. The mountains, rivers, streams, and animals are nothing short of stunning and we’ve seen Denali three times. We saw the NPS sled dog demonstration and went offroad at a couple locations near the park, outside of Healy. We didn’t see animals, but the views made up for it. We’ve done a couple hikes, tried elk meatballs and reindeer sausage, learned that porcupines walk across the top of the snow to chew on Birch tree bark, drove down to the North and South Denali viewpoints at the Denali State Park, and went to a solstice luau at the 49th State Brewery.
