Day 15 - Tok to Fairbanks


We read in The Milepost yesterday that we should see elk and bison. We saw the skat for each but no further signs. Today we started by meeting two lady moose, then later we came across this bull. A less clear photo than the one I've posted shows one of the ladies hiding behind a tree. Something about a moose -- a single tree just doesn't make her invisible!

The other picture shows several of the peaks of the Alaska Range. They look almost marshmallowy on top. The man in the foreground had been clearly tall grass with a sickle. His movements were smooth, steady, and beautiful; he made his job look easy.

Tonight we're in Fairbanks. I'll try to get a photo of the most exotic thing I saw today so I can post it later.
