A cool thing about hiking in Denali is that you can just bushwhack anywhere. We would take off on an organized hike and then branch out where ever we wanted.. most of the trail terrain is on creek beds or tundra. A goal for all is to see Mount Denali. On our ranger hike, we did a total of 9 miles, 5 miles on our own saying hey-bear frequently. We also always carry bear spray. Only about 30% of the people visiting Denali see the whole mountain. We were able to for a short while one day! Denali is in the foreground of this picture.
It is truly majestic. We hiked off trail 5 miles this day, it was low brush and tundra on a hill side. Really tough hiking and freah bear sign everywhere, ’love’en life!’
