We just exited Denali National Park after an 8-day adventure in The Park. All of our expectations were met as we rode the 180 miles of dirt road, over numerous passes, to Wonder Lake and back. This is the true North American safari; we spotted 16 grizzly bears, numerous caribou, too many dall sheep to count, porcupines and a lynx! Don't worry, all of the bears were seen at a distance. We were able to see Mt McKinley, aka Denali, on three separate occasions, which was a special treat. Of course, we also saw some of the most amazing mountain and tundra landscapes that exist in the world. We have met numerous wonderful people and even quite a few bike tourers along the way. We are pretty sure that all of the bus drivers are familiar with us as they see us every day as they complete their daily drive of the road. All is going well as we cross over the halfway mark of our trip. Pasta is starting to get a little too familiar but the company at dinner (each other) is well worth the meal.
