Before the Icefields photos, I have to tell you today the 13th of July is a very special day.  Oh, we went on the best drive since the Icefields.  The road was called Hatcher Pass, north of Palmer.  But that was nothing compared to getting our first picture of a moose !!!!!  Since the beginning of June, we have been looking for all the moose that everybody says are all over the place but have  only seen a couple moose butts heading back into the trees, no pictures there.  At last, here is a cow and calf standing only a few feet from the car as we came around a curve on a dirt road.  I didn't roll down the window because I thought it might spook her so the photo isn't real clear.

Lieb, this one is for you! I guess she was saying, " Ok, You had your one shot! "
You will have to wait for Hatcher Pass photos,  I want to get back to the Icefields photos because after those will come Alaska and I'm trying hard to get caught up to the present.  We made it to AK on June 21,  only  twenty-three days ago and you can't imagine all the things we have seen.

We have the great Alaska Extreme Weather Tent from Cabela's. It's a big 12' x 12' tent but very easy to put up.

This waterfall was right in our small campground with only 15 campsites.
The next pictures were along the road right by the camp.

Everywhere you looked there were so many different textures and colors. I drove David crazy wanting to take more pictues.

It is the most exciting thing to see the wildlife right beside your truck.
This post is getting very long , so I,ll close for now.  I want to do another one of the hike we did this same afternoon.  See you in a minute!
