We were fortunate that Denali (Mount McKinley) was visible through most of our visit. The train ride we took was from Talkeetna to Whittier. Incredible.

That is lucky. You can go years without seeing Denali, even if you live there.

True, depending on where you live. It is visible from Anchorage on really clear days, though, so most Alaskans will see it at some point.

We also took a plane ride around it. Small propeller plane with a crazy Alaskan bush pilot. Both beautiful and terrifying. I took notes on each day of the trip and I'm glad I saved them. It brings back lots of memories.
