Mortal Moulin

I was shocked at the size of this gargantuan moulin at the top of the Snowbird Glacier. It had two waterfalls pouring into it and i could not see the bottom. A bad sign for an already dying Glacier.

Matanuska Fall

Fall is beautiful and underrated in Alaska. Maybe because for outsiders it can be so hard to hit it just right. Fall is known for unpredictable weather and a short time frame for colorful leaves. Some years it rains during that whole window. Other years we get an Indian Summer.

High rolling hills near the White Mountains are characteristic of the Top of the World Highway at the most northern border crossing between the United States and Canada. I arrived 20 minutes too late, due to the sights and roughness of the dirt road, and had to spend the night next to the border. This pictures was taken on a color slide in the early 2000's.
