dear thack,

(Old guy early rising good morning)

Thank you for the pics!!

I know it is alaska, but that roadway sure reminds me of the roadway towards Mt.St.Helens, in 1993. Just about as many trees.

Donald Trump, apparently assuming he will secure the White House, tweeted (in 2015) that he would reverse the decision announced by President Obama to change the name of Alaska's Mount McKinley back to the traditional name Denali

I want to revisit this. As someone that has fond memories of having viewed The Great One (Denali) from Anchorage, Denali is the best name. There it sits 130 miles away, nearly 4 miles in height and clearly visible. A wonder to behold.

One things that all Alaskans have in common is a resentment for outside interference from the 'lower 48'.
