On our way to Denali National Park the day was so clear and beautiful that we got to see Denali! Because the weather was so nice we decided to take advantage of the beautiful day and do two hikes. The first one we did was the Savage River Loop Trail. It was a beautiful hike that looped around a roaring river. The second hike we did was the Savage Alpine Trail. It was a very hard hike that climbed up and over a very steep and high ridge. We got amazing views of the valley from a high ridge top. It was getting dark by the time we finished! <\/p>\n

We visited the National Park Service\u2019s sled dog kennel where I got to pet an Alaskan Husky and learned about dog mushing. I learned about the Husky\u2019s ability to withstand cold temperatures in winter when the snow falls. The ranger also taught us that Huskies don\u2019t do well in hot summers because they have three coats of fur.<\/p>\n
