This is from Reflection Pond though I could see it right from my cabin (when clouds were away)
Just letting family/friends know I am in Talkeetna as scheduled. Denali NP was absolutely awesome!! I hope to get story and pictures out before I move on Sunday afternoon but we'll see how tomorrow goes. Right now, I am way too tired to post anything other than this quick note just so nobody gets concerned about not hearing anything. I included two pictures just so you know I was really there (sometimes I don't believe it myself). The first is much better represented by professionals taking this same shot from Reflection Pond. However I was there taking this one and that makes it the best Denali picture at the Reflection Pond that I will ever see ;) The other is explained in picture. It was a wonderful week but now simply have to do an early to bed - really, really worn out tonight - down for the count!

We hiked this pretty tough trek and then rounded the last incline to find this view waiting for us. Just to show I was there ;)
