Our FIRST time in DENALI National Park! (Savage Alpine, Mount Healy, sled dogs, & Horseshoe Lake)

Описание: For our first stop in Alaska we’re at Denali National Park! Denali (formerly known as Mount McKinley) is the highest mountain peak in North America, at 20,310 feet and gets its name after a Koyukon Athabascan word that means “The Great One.” In this video we bring you along as we explore the first 15 miles of Denali National Park over a couple days, which is the only part of the park that you can visit in your own personal vehicle.
