Denali. What a difference 3 weeks can make.
Devany was in Wisconsin judging the YMCA Nationals gymnastics meet, so I managed to score a last minute reservation at the Teklanika campground for 4 nights. We were here three weeks ago and wow, what an amazing difference. It had been a very late spring, with very little green growth yet. Not this trip. The tundra was a lush blanket of green, the wildflowers were blazing all around. Didn’t get any close bears this time, but still saw plenty of critters, including a very rare one that we haven’t seen in many years. Come along for another biking with bears journey.
