Lost and Found: Denali Park, Alaska
My daughter Amelia packed up and left last weekend for Montreal after 6 weeks in Edmonton.
One of the losses she be moaned was a roll of film taken on her June trip to Alaska....
well cleaning up her room I found and developed the film to discover some stunning photos of Alaska. This included time with the same friends Sam and Gretchen mentioned in my previous post.Canoeing,
discovering wildlife ( use your judgement on who the wild one is here )
was most impressed with these shots of Mount McKinleyin mid-day
and 1:30 in the morning, on summer solstice. !!!!
This is what I found if you want more info....
"Denali is just as beautiful as it is dangerous. In the heart of Alaska, rising more than 20,000 feet from sealevel. Denali (The High One) is the Native (Athabascan) American word for North America's highest peak, Mount McKinley in the mountain chain called the Alaska Range...."

Alaska looks amazing, never been there but am sure it is breathtaking place, especially judging from these pics
. Thanks for sharing
.
that photo was taken at 1:30 in the morning, on summer solstice. the colouring on it is due to "Alpenglow" wikipedia that!
@Amelia - WOW...I was not sure but know that arctic colors vary greatly and are very unique!
