Day Three: Tour Denali National Park

Day three was a 5 hour tour into the interior.  We only went 15 miles into the park, but came across plenty of wildlife and even got to see Denali/Mt. McKinley (only 25% of people that visit get this privilege!).

The Tour Bus

How we could distinguish our tour bus from others :)

Our tour guide, Steve. He was so knowledgeable about all things Denali. We later found out it takes 10-15 years to become a bus driver/tour guide in this park.
