At Creek Street in Ketchekan, Alaska

Alaskan Wolf. Wolves in captivity are 40% heavier than those in th wild.

Lillian petting a Wolf. These were wolves at a place called Wolf Country.

Note the mild Alaskan weather in May. You think of Alaska and it's extreme cold weather. It's quite different in the Summer. I can get warm, in fact, the only time we were cold was when we wer near the glaciers.

Grizzley Bear strolling along

Two Bald Eagles in a tree

Eagle in a nest near Denali. We saw so many Eagles that whenever someone new would shriek in excitement over seeing an Eagle, we would just shrug our shoulders.

Waterfall in Saxman near Ketchekan, Alaska

Bob took this picture at a farm near Anchorage, Alaska

The Totem Pole Museum in Saxman near Ketchekan, Alaska

Mount McKinley at the Denail Park. Denali is Native Alaskan for "The Great One" referring to the mountain.

Musk Ox

Thumbs Up cause I'm in the USA and she is in Canada. We were at the territorial boundary between USA and Canada near the Yukon Territories.

The Yukon - White Pass Railroad. THE MOST SCENIC RIDE EVER! We thought we were on a Disney ride. Several passengers said the same thing. The lanscape looked so beautiful and clean that we thought it was manicured but it was all natural. There were waterfalls, creeks, wildlife and so much more. Being on the old train took us back in time. Truly something we would like to do again.

Totem Poles in downtown Anchorage. Totems are carved and erected in honor of an event or person.

At the Denali National Park

That's David, the late Susan Butcher's husband at their Mush Camp. Susan was the lady that won the Ididarod Race 3 years in a row.

Feeding Reindeer. Reindeer and Caribou are the same animal. Reindeer are those that are domesticated.

Glacier at Prince William Sound. The glacier had been calving about every give minutes before the helicopter showed up. Afterwards the glacier started calving even more.

Cultural center near Fairbanks simulating early life in the early days in Alaska

Spectacular pristine natural beauty is Alaska. There is a spiritual connection on feels when in the presence of such majesty.

Hard to imagine that this Glacier is 300 feet high. That's as high as a 30 story building. A Glacier is a river of ice. It is always growing or receeding. Glaciers are formed by compacted snow turning to ice throughout the glacier's many thousand year lifetime.

Everywhere is the breathless beauty of Alaska

This is the kind of landscape where you are constantly wowed.

Flowers are bigger in Alaska

Emerald Lake. This is a picture you need to click to see larger to appreciate the green lake.
