If you’re looking for a great place to stay near Denali National Park, I highly recommend checking out Denali Lakeview Inn. It’s one of my favorite places I’ve stayed. It’s super comfortable and the views from the rooms are incredible. I’m from the desert, so having a frozen lake outside my door was nothing short of magical. (And yes, I’m mildly obsessed with the show Severance in case you noticed the music.) #alaskawinter #alaskawinteradventures #denalinationalpark #healyalaska

One of our top things to do in Denali National Park and one of our favorite hikes is the Mt Healy Overlook Trail. It is a strenuous hike with a 1700 foot elevation gain over 2.7 miles to the top. Where you are climbing up rocky steps for a lot of the way. The hike takes you through the forest but you get glimpses of the epic views all the way up. Once you are at the top the views are gorgeous!! It is colder at the top so be sure you have layers and that you bring snacks and drink to hang out here for a minute and take in the beautiful views!! The hike down is easier in some ways but harder on the knees!! Hiking poles definitely would have been nice to have. Once we reached the bottom we headed to the 49th Street Brewery to celebrate a hike well done! We hiked it with my sister and her family @freewheelin_family.

An epic day in Denali NP🤘🏼 - I was so stoked to have an opportunity to get close to a few massive rams. Dall sheep are always at the top of the list for me when it comes to species in Alaska. They are always in such high elevation locations, which makes any day you go looking for them a very tiring one! The conditions up on the mountain are changing so quickly. It went from sun to rain back and forth over and over again. I even saw a few rainbows on this day which was a treat! One of my favorite afternoons from summer/fall up north for sure. . . . . #wildlife #dallsheep #alaska #solotravel #discoverwildlife #travelalaska #wildlifephotography #nature #thegreatplanet #nakedplanet #wildernessculture #folkscenery #natgeoyourshot #lonelyplanet #hikingadventures #usinterior #uswilderness #alaskalife #sonyalpha #kuiu #denali #nationalpark

What an afternoon this was! Which one is your favorite?! - Seriously couldn’t have asked for better conditions on my recent trip up to Denali NP. The fall colors were in full swing, and the caribou were moving around like crazy! I was lucky enough to stumble upon a couple of bachelor groups on this afternoon, and more myself out, chasing them around for about 4 to 5 hours. Caribou always make you work for it. Are they tend to move around about as much as elk, but the terrain up here makes it so tough to keep up with them. All the effort, just makes the images that much more special to me because I had to work so hard for them. I bite around 20 miles on this day and hiked another 5. I really push my body to the brink when I was out there in Denali, but it was so worth it.Caribou are quickly becoming one of my favorite subjects and I can’t wait till my next meeting with a nice group like this! . . . . . #alaska #denali #caribou #travelalaska #sonyalpha #wildlife #wildlifephotography #solotravel #nationalpark #denalinationalpark #nationalparkgeek #usinterior

Find joy in the little things! Dance in the rain, bask in the sun, and frolic in the snow. However you feel most joyful outside, take time to be silly and don’t forget to bring a friend. Comment a video or photo of your joyful moment outside today. #snow #joy #getoutside NPS Video/ Emily Miller Video Description: Slow motion video of two park rangers “high-fiving” in the snow, in-front of the Denali entrance sign.

The climb is always worth it when these big guys are at the top! - Nothing beats a day on the mountain with sheep, and this day tops all other sheep in experiences I have ever had for sure. The weather was perfect! A nice overcast all day with mix of rain and snow coming down, and even a few rainbows! 10/10 wildlife encounter for sure! - What made the climb even better that day was that I had a good friend along with me! Big thanks to my buddy @mikerigney for capturing a few bts shots of me on this day! We had an absolute blast camping in Denali National Park together for a few days. Actually our trips there overlapped completely by accident! Gotta love how things work out sometimes. Truthfully Mike seemed more stoked about the ptarmigan at the bottom of the mountain, but that’s just the bird guy he is! I think he was still pretty stoked on the wheel too though. Hope our paths cross again soon in the wild. . . . . #wildlife #dallsheep #alaska #solotravel #discoverwildlife #travelalaska #wildlifephotography #nature #thegreatplanet #nakedplanet #wildernessculture #folkscenery #natgeoyourshot #lonelyplanet #hikingadventures #usinterior #uswilderness #alaskalife #sonyalpha #kuiu #denali #nationalpark
