After seeing Glacier Bay National Park with the Holsers, we flew via Alaska
Airlines from Juneau to Anchorage to see Ken and Judy Pendleton (sv Nellie
Juan), friends we met in Mexico. The Pendletons took us to their lake
cabin in Willow, then we drove up to Telkeetna for views of Delani NP, and
then to Seward on the Central Alaska Coast where we walked looking at
wildflowers and red sockeye salmon!

The West Rib Pub in Telkeetna had climbing memorabilia everywhere!

Although totally socked in at first, the clouds cleared to give us the once-in-a lifetime view of Denali - 20,320'.

The Pendleton's lake cabin in Willow was a peaceful retreat!
