Alaska: Land of the Swarming Mosquitoes

[glacier_kitty]

Today we went hiking in a place near North Pole. The mosquitoes were CRAZY. There was a view at the end but not the best. Maybe if you looked real close you could see the Tanana River haha. I got pics but I left my camera in the car so I'll post them tomorrow or when I have time

Tomorrow I'm going on the riverboat Discovery on the Chena and possibly Tanana River (we'll see the confluence at least) and a tour of a gold mine..and then on Thursday after work we're going to Denali and staying there till Saturday!

Wow awesome! One of these days I'll get to Denali haha...I'd so love to see it.

Looking forward to seeing your pictures, of course. I hope the mosquitoes leave you alone, too!
