A Beautiful Day for Mountain Sightings

Drove a group of people to Whittier on Aug 27 so they could get on the Cruise Ship.
On the 28th we drove back to the Mount McKinley Princess Lodge. It was a beautiful, clear day after we got away from Whittier. It was so clear that we could see Denali (the mountain) as we were driving through downtown Anchorage, but could not get a picture. We also saw it almost the entire way from Anchorage to McKinley Princess.
Here are some pictures.

From just north of Wasilla.

From the deck at the McKinley Princess Lodge. It had started to get a little cloudy around the mountain

Mount Foraker (Denali's wife 17,000+ feet)on the left and Mount Hunter on the right(Denali's Child 14,500+ feet). Foraker is farther away so looks shorter.

A final view of the mountain.
