Hi guys, this will be my first time working at Denali, so I was curious about some of the coolest things people have done while working there. If you have any crazy stories or radical adventures I would like to hear them too!
Get out into the park as often as you can and spend the night or two if possible. If you can get out of the canyon and go to any festivals such as the Moose Dropping Festival, Anderson Blue Grass or Girdwood Forest Fair, make it happen. Some of my best memories from last summer happenned outside of Glitter Gulch. We did an Edward 40 Hands night, Power Hour, and a Tour de Franzia, all three were spectacular. Really, any time you can get with a group of people it's worth it.
drive car to Fairbanks. take Alaska Airlines to Anchorage one way fair $130. then take Alaska Rail Road all the way back to Fairbanks for free. taxi cab from anchorage airport to train station. relax on train and have good lunch, dinner heading back to Fairbanks. two days off agenda.
13 mile river raft trip first day. then second day take tour bus into national park for full day adventure. back to back fun for two full day's time off from work. that is the ticket for best adventure. everyone has to take time to be at Wonder Lake inside Denali national park. We are lucky our job's not Bus washing.
