On Saturday, July 30, we left on the 12 hr bus ride at 6:00AM in hopes of seeing wildlife and Mt. McKinley. It just wasn't our day. We did see sleet though.

Our first stop was at a high overlook. It was still foggy.

We played with caribu horns at one of the stops.

We had a picnic lunch at Wonder Lake, but the smoke from a nearby fire and clouds did not allow a view of the mountain.

We had fun picking blueberries. The plants grow on top of the ground because of perma frost. Walking on them feels spongy.

These next 2 photos were taken on the way back. It was all so much farther away than it looked
