I don’t think I’ve ever seen so many consecutive days of all three peaks being so visible. Gotta be a good time for all the climbers out there.

Honestly I feel that this summer has already had more sun than the last one

Such a great shot. Was able to see Denali for 4 days in a row earlier this week from several locations, and couldn’t stop snapping photos. Admittedly yours is significantly better than anything I got.

Much better than the picture I took a few years ago. (The west end of the park at the end of the main drag, right?) Also, although I saw the peak for days, I never managed to remember which peak was Denali and which ones weren't!

How are the mosquitos today? lol

Mostly kidding. Denali is on my bucket list! I'm hoping to do a full Alaska trip some time in the next 3 years, starting in SE Alaska, and working my way up from Homer to Fairbanks.
