Next day was Denali to Seward, with a stop in Anchorage to deal with some maintenance issues.
Just as we left Denali, we passed some of the most magnificent scenery I have ever seen
Imagine this for 360 degrees around you, with Denali shrouded in clouds behind us for several hours.
No pictures of Anchorage here...It is a city... But we did get this at the Bass Pro shop. Beamer's better shot
After this and a great meal at
Gwennies Old Time Alaska restaurant - awesome food!!!! Then we took care of the trailer by getting bearings at
Alaska Bearing and then across the street to
Agen's Automotive to have the bearing pressed in. $55 for 8 bearings, (4 spares) and $51 to have them pressed in. 1 hour time
.
Big shout out to RredneckJ for setting up contingency plans for us if we need more help in getting the trailer wheels fixed. Fortunately we did not need the extra help.
With the maintenance issues done we continued onto Seward, and the scenery along Turnigan Arm was simply breathtaking.
The Chugach National Forest is the second largest NF in America some 6.9 million acres (about the size of New Hampshire or Rhode Island)
Dock are of Seward
A downtown waterfront City owned RV park. We were going to stay here, But Reamer2 hooked us up with the
Seward Resort - a military family resort - (Reamer 2 is active duty Coast Guard on the Oregon coast) The place is outstanding, we have met many active and retired military folks with awesome stories to tell.
If you have followed our Spot you will know we have been in the general area for the last 2 days now with 2 more to go.
