Jul 29, 2008 - Heading north from Anchorage

Monday morning I spent a couple hours getting my web updates and pictures uploaded and Dave got the truck cleaned up. We drove on and were going to stop in Denali state park at 2 different view points but when we got to the south view, it was so crowded with rv's and tour buses that I didn't even think we could get in with our whole rig hooked up so we went on to the north viewpoint and the mountain was clouded in, Dave talked with the camp host and found out that we could camp overnight in the parking area pull thrus for $10. ... and he thought there was a chance it might clear at sunset(whenever that is) so we decided to stay the night, no views but it sure was pretty scenery and a nice quiet night, only 5 or 6 rigs stayed.Monday morning I spent a couple hours getting my web updates and pictures uploaded and Dave got the truck cleaned up.
