Denali shot of the day
It's not the once in a lifetime shot I got of the moon setting over Denali from a couple of years ago, but it's close. Those who don't live in Alaska probably won't appreciate how rare it is to get a shot of Denali in the clear and fireweed in bloom in the same photo.

Yesterday was a beautiful day and today is as well in Eagle River Alaska.

Sitting on the back deck now with a view of the glacier.

Really nice!

We were blessed with a little view of it in May, but nothing like that.

Thanks for the memories.......Lower 48 residents do not realize how often Mt. Mckinley / Denali actually is out in clear visibility. It almost has its own weather system... And the fire weed in the same photo .. How it grows naturally from small patches to very large open areas.................... In 1976 a climbing expedition scaled Mt. Mckinley with hang gliders.. One successful pilot was able to launch successfully and during his flight he called his wife by way of a 2 meter FM handheld Ham Radio handy-talkie who was down in the Anchorage, Alaska area.... Not all of the expedition members survived.. Story goes that several years later that pilot passed away and his ashes were scattered on the top of Mt. Mckinley. ..I learned of this story after I recieved my Ham Radio license (January 1978) (KL7JIU)(which I still hold and it is still active) while stationed at Ft. Greely, Alaska............................... drill sgt.
