Flightseeing Wrangell – St Elias National Park & Preserve June 22, 2013

In a park of 13.2 million acres (6 times larger than Yellowstone, bigger than Switzerland, 9 of the highest 16 highest peaks in the USA, more than 150 glaciers) and one road, there is no viewing vehicle better than an airplane.  Since we love airplanes, and fantastic scenery on a sunny blue-sky day, David and I seized the opportunity to flight see this park.   Here are our results.  We saw so many mountain peaks and glaciers I could not even remember all their names; except Mt Blackburn, the second highest peak, after Mt McKinley.

In a Cessna 206: 70 minutes of beauty, of awe, of photography and Mother Nature like I have never seen her before.
