Anchorage to Glennallen

We have made it to Glennallen today and hit the 230 mile mark. The weather has been great- sunny/cloudy, and not that rainy (yet). I think we are used to the rain from last time, and not as scared of it. We have seen a ton of moose so far (10), each with babies. We rode the Glenn Hwy from Palmer to Glennallen all along the Chugach Range. The mountains are AMAZING!! I cannot even describe how beautiful they are, and how many there are. We stopped at Manatuska Glacier and camped for a night. There are many glaciers along the way that are not named, but are massive! We have met many nice people along the way...not too many however because the Glenn is a slower road (which is good for bikers). We did 2 big days of riding, over 2 passes to get to Glennallen and are pretty impressed so far! We rented a little cabin tonight and are taking showers, doing laundry and hangout indoors. It is not needed to stay out of the rain, but it is to stay away from those big mosquitoes!!
