7/12/13: Denali National Park - Day 4

We went on the bus again today, just switched up our teams... Brady with me and Kailey with Rick.  HUGE treat today is that we saw the mountain!!!!  Mt. McKinley is the highest mountain in the US and only 30% of Denali's visitors get the chance to see it!!!  We are official member's of the 30% club!!!

Here are more photos:


KK and Rick went on the early bus and saw the mountain first at mile 7...


Ahhhhh.... There she is!!!

Grizzly:

Top of Sable Pass -- they put nails in the sign there to detour bears from rubbing their backs on it (yes,they have replaced it numerous times) --- um, it's not working!

Pretty lake at Polychrome:
