      That's so awesome! I (Cora) just flew in yesterday and Denali was screaming - even flying over the Turnagain Arm it was visible just punching straight into the sky. Absolutely epic. So happy you saw it out in force yesterday!

    I played music at Chena Hot Springs about 45 years ago when it was a run down place in need of lots of work. We cross country skied up the canyon behind the springs for an over nighter at below zero temperatures. It is amazing what they have done with the place.

    My husband and I have thoroughly enjoyed following the two of you on your Alaskan adventure. We are heading to Fairbanks in March of 2024. Cora, I would love to know what kind of boots you were wearing on this episode at the Denali observation point. Also, any recipes Jose would like to share with my husband would be awesome! Keep up the great work!! We look forward to every new episode.

    Anything above 0° was a heatwave for us.

    My husband and I are truckers and travel the Alaska Highway twice a week. We leave from Edmonton and go to Beaver Creek. We are always in awe of the beauty and love all the animals, especially the bears.
    We were wondering if you drove the car all the way or towed it?

    We took the bus tour through Denali 2 years ago. The next day they closed the road because a section of the road slid away from the mountain side. They said a bridge had to be built in order to reopen the road. Do you know if it is open now?

    • @ArtWeThereYet
      @ArtWeThereYet  Před 9 měsíci

      Oh wow, you LITERALLY were one of the last people to take a bus tour all the way in! The road is still closed with a projected reopening in 2024. But you know how construction projects are… I wouldn’t be surprised if it doesn’t de-open until 2026.

    Great video. What do you mean when you said that Denali is the 3rd tallest mountain in the world? There 14 8k in the world located all in the Himalayas and Denali doesn't make it in the top 100. Maybe I am misunderstanding what you are saying.

    • @ArtWeThereYet
      @ArtWeThereYet  Před 11 měsíci

      Hey thanks for watching! Yes, that was a typo in the script. What we meant is that Denali is the third tallest of the seven summits. We are trying to figure out how to make the correction without deleting the video.
