Day 2 in Denali
adminOur second day in Denali we visited the park services sled dog kennels.
The parks service in Denali has used working sled dogs since the 1920’s to service and maintain the park. During the summer the dogs are on “vacation” and the kennel is open to the public to check out and see a demonstration of how they work. And Kenzie is all about any chance to hang out and play with dogs…
After spending the morning at the kennels, we headed back to Fairbanks to hang out for the evening before our flight the next morning. But along the way we took a quick detour to see some musk ox and reindeer at the University of Alaska research facility.
The last picture I took at the Fred Meyer in Fairbanks. It’s a sign that hangs in the entry way. This is a whole new level of delivery service I never realized existed. You can email or call in your Fred Meyer order, and then they do the shopping for you. But instead of bringing your groceries out to the parking lot so you don’t have to go in, in Fairbanks they will load your order into a float plane and fly it out into the Alaska bush and deliver it for you. Not bad!
