This weekend we went on a mini road trip to Anchorage for a hockey tournament. USA Hockey and Labatt sponsor recreational hockey tournaments all across the country, and Alaska had some 60 teams participating, with 15 from Fairbanks. Two of our three family teams won their divisions, Women's Silver and Men's Intermediate. Marty's team finished dead last, but he had a great time. On the way home we stopped at the South viewpoint for Denali aka Mt. McKinley. The Athabascan name Denali means the Great One. Denali is part of the Alaska Range and is the highest peak in North America at 20,320 feet. Often the peak is shrouded in clouds, but it was a good day for viewing. Even though the gate to the viewing area was still closed for the season, we were able to walk in and get some photos.
You can see other photos I've taken of Denali and Denali National Park HERE and HERE.
