Wilderness Resort is somewhere I'd like to visit again. There are hiking trails on the property and one was closed because a mother moose (cow?) and her calf had been spotted near the trail. They closed it to protect hikers and leave the moose family undisturbed. Moose can be very dangerous when provoked. One bus driver said they often wandered onto the grounds.
The trip to Anchorage was long and uneventful, although we saw lots of beautiful landscape.
As we traveled south, we noticed the trees became broad-leafed.
While in Anchorage we stayed at the Hotel Captain Cook. It was very large and posh, and the rooms were beautiful. We were not very impressed by the staff though.
It was 11 pm Alaska time(2 am CDT) and very light out. The Park was very busy with bicyclists and walkers--just as though it were mid-afternoon. Mosquitoes swarmed all around and we were very glad to have brought repellent with us.
