Anchorage has the largest seaplane port in the world at Lake Hood. At the busiest times of the summer there are 800 flights per day flying in and out. Since Alaska is such a large state and there are so few roads, private planes are a popular form of transportation.
These pretty yellow flowers seemed to spring from the tundra on the hillside above the Eielson Visitors Center in Denali National Park.
Arnicas are always bright and pretty. They add a lot of color to the landscape. I found these blooming in Kenai.
