the Al-Can won us
as we drove through Alaska
to these perfect peaks


how many glaciers
will there be left in our lives?
the thought is scary
the Al-Can won us
as we drove through Alaska
to these perfect peaks


how many glaciers
will there be left in our lives?
the thought is scary
the hike from hell wins
first with a grizzly loping
(who turned into woods)

then the sunrise view
of the flawless Lake Kathleen
before the ascent


the cloud at the peak?
kind of ruined my dream view
until the descent

the descent from hell
with steep scree the whole way down
even dog is stressed

how to recover?
book hotel three hours down
this horrible road
