Hiking in Girdwood
Char and I took a wild adventure to a town about 30 miles south of Anchorage on Sunday. It is the home of a big ski resort, and has lots of trails in the summer time for hiking.
The mountains were still snow-capped. Beautiful country out here! On the way out, we stopped at Beluga Point to look for whales. We didn't see any, but we were able to see some Dall Sheep with the binoculars. They climbed on the mountains on the opposite side of Turnagain Arm (the inlet that Anchorage sits on--supposedly named when Captain Cook was looking for the Northwest passage, couldn't find it, and had to "turn again").
So, I've posted some pictures for you to enjoy! (This one is Char doing the badger dance ...)
