I know, summer’s over. But the COLORS. The COLORS of DENALI! Check ‘em out with the great package from our friends at Denali Park Resorts.

For $219, you get two nights’ at Your $219 package includes two nights’ accommodations, a $50 gift card for tours and/or meals at the resort and 500 Alaska Airlines miles.

Optional activities include the MUST-DO ride into the park. I recommend the long ride into the park. It’s an 8-hour ride, but s-o-o-o worth it. This is your chance to see wildlife and scenery on the 85-mile road from the entrance back to Wonder Lake.

Or, choose a thrilling raft trip on the Nenana River. You can choose a “mild” ride or a “wild” ride.

Afterwards, save room for the “Alaska Cabin Nite” dinner theater!

Don’t miss out on this seasons’ best deal for Denali vacations. Take advantage of “The Colors of Denali” today.

Wow. Great trip to the Alaska Rainforest Sanctuary–where we snuck up on a  few bears gorging themselves on salmon. Then, zip-zip-zip we went on the Alaska Canopy Tour through the rainforest. Great stuff in Herring Cove, just outside of Ketchikan. Check it out:
