This road trip is going fast... Too fast

The 270 mile stretch of road from Wasilla to Tok exceeded the beauty of every thing we have seen. Majestic peaks rise above the banks of spruce-lined river. Every turn in the Alaska highway 1 (Tok Cutoff) is a unique and stunning vista. If it wasn't for the swarms of flies and mosquitos, we would have spent the entire day with our mouths agape.



A glacier creeps out of a valley:


A moose sighting! We had just stopped at a roadside shack for coffee:



I drove the entire route from Palmer to Tok, about 300 miles. As we neared Tok, I was ready for lunch and to transfer driving duties. Perhaps I hastened our arrival too much. Add Alaska to the list of states where I've made new friends :-(
