Alaska 2009
Anchorage, Denali area, Prince William Sound
Sunday August 3 through Monday August 10
I joined a coworker in Anchorage near the end of her summer internship there. We traveled together on all days except Aug 10, the day after she departed for Oklahoma. The GPS tracks have only been edited to remove major errors—a few significant errors in tracking remain. There is also currently no distinction between travel methods: auto, pedestrian, boat, airplane.
