Shots from a photo turnout on the Richardson

Looking back northeast toward the end of the Granite Mountains of the Alaska Range.

Look at how sharp that shadow is on the packed snow parking lot. Most roads look like this all winter. The snow and ice don't really melt until April.

Toward the ridgeline that is the Denali Highway. There be beasts in them thar hills with big fangs and claws.

Look at that granite face only 30 minutes from Delta.

Bring a harness and a sense of adventure and lets go climbing.

Now how do we get there, maybe helicopter.
