Denali Grand Slam



Denali National Park is hands down the most pristine place I have ever visited.  In the “Last Frontier” grand slams involve brown bear, moose, Daal sheep and caribou rather than sports.  In addition to a grand slam, there were even sights of Mt. McKinley breaking through the clouds!   




I would argue that these pictures do not fully show how beautiful, deep and colorful the landscape was. 













 
It took over 5 hours traveling on the one-lane road through the park to reach the final destination: Wonder Lake.  The lake views made all the time spent on the road and at the various stops along the way completely worth it.











 I could really get used to spending my days surrounded by the beauty of nature and returning to this lakefront view!
