Flightseeing the Alaska Range

American Alpine Institute
Back to Blog

AAI’s Director, Dunham Gooding and I, went to Alaska over the weekend to attend meetings with Denali National Park and Wrangle-St. Elias National Park. While we were in Talkeetna, the wonderful people at K2 Aviation offered to bring us up on a flight tour of the Alaska Range. We, of course, greedily accepted the offer!

Following is a photo essay of our flight. Click on the photos if you would like to see a larger version. All of these photos were taken on October 16th.
