Thanks to the Yukon Flats School District bringing us into town for an inservice- we were able to take off for the weekend on a hike. So Saturday morning we raced down the Richardson Highway with the Fall colors in full bloom and sprinkling rain showers. Our destination, the Delta Mountains of the Eastern Alaska Range. This is an area I really haven't explored at all, except from the drivers seat racing down the highway at 70mph coming or going between Anchorage and Fairbanks...
The Castner Glacier is easily accessible from the highway just South of the Black Rapids camp. Within a mile of the truck we were upon this expansive chunk of ice nearly totally covered in rock, scree, mud, and a mix of tundra like vegetation.
Enjoy the video!
