Alaskan Cruise - July 2005

Day 2 - Princess Rail, Denali Princess Wilderness Lodge & Jeff King's Dog Sled Camp

Six hour train ride to Denali Princess Wilderness Lodge at the foot of the Denali National Park. The trip was supposed to take four hours but a fire on the train made for a two hour stop at a road crossing so the local firemen could cut into the exterior wall of one of the cars and put the fire out. The night was spent visiting the homestead of three-time Iditarod Dog Sled Race champion Jeff King.
