Ken worked today, the children, my parents and I headed to Denali NP. The children completed their Denali Junior Ranger program and we went to a sled dog demonstration! Most of us did a 1.8 mi. hike from the dog sled demo station back to the visitor center. Then a picnic lunch and Ken joined us. Most of the kids went back to the campground (Midnight Sun RV park) with my parents, but Ken, Isaac and I stayed and completed a 3+ mile hike called Horseshoe Lake Trail. We saw a snowshoe hare, few beavers and a moose in the lake. It was a fun hike except my boots were rubbing, so I did over two miles of it barefoot. The upside is I didn't end up with any serious blisters and I got to soak my feet in the Nanana River along the trail. Tomorrow we plan to take the green bus through Denali NP as far as Eilson Visitor Center. It is about 8hrs round trip, or more.
