Upon arrival we were extremely disappointed in the campground (can you say “false advertising “?) This is part of the adventure though—the disappointment of non-working showers, dirty bathrooms, no picnic table in the campsite We decided Enough Adventure of that kind and resolved to move on today
During the night we got emergency notifications for evacuations near that area
Yes that’s from 2:43 a.m.!
This morning we stopped and talked to one of the firefighters staying in Anderson who told us the road north back to Fairbanks was closed but the road south was open. There is a section where the firefighters are actively working and the road is open one lane only so we had to wait and follow a pilot car about 15 miles.
Today we drove to Cantwell which is just south of Denali National Park where we have Real Working Showers and amazing views nearby
Its the simple pleasures!!
