Who would have thought Alaska in the wintertime would be fun? The scenery was great. Lots of hiking! We went to a Family Medicine conference for part of it, as Sarah and I were speaking at it. But then the rest was vacation. Hiking every day. Lots of things to see. Here is some of the views we got to encounter while out hiking.
There were lots of wildlife to see as well. Lots of eagles, and moose!
We even came across a bear!
OK, so the bear was not real! I was ok with that. But the scenery was truly amazing.
There was always something different to see out on the trails.
Some days were cloudy, others sunny. The day before we came, they had 5 inches of new snow, and the trees looked really cool.
If you have never been to Alaska, you really are missing out. Whether winter or summer, there is always something to view. The hiking and wildlife were amazing. Sunrise and sunsets were also amazing. Put Alaska on your bucket list if you have never been there. It was well worth the trip. Alaska is so big we only saw a fraction of what is available. It was also nice to get back home and see almost all of our snow gone! It is time for Spring! Keep moving everybody!
