We unfortunately didn’t see any wolves, and it must have been a treat for you to have seen a pack as well as wildlife behaving out in the park.

Good luck on your trip.

My husband and I are going to be driving the Dalton Highway and I am looking through the Internet to find out all I can about the route. That’s how I found your webpage. We have been to Denali several times; it was great to see some of it from the air in your pictures.
One picture especially caught my eye. In the Denali II pictures, image #16 was of special interest. We were on that bridge last summer photographing bears and a wolf. The resident wolf pack had killed a caribou in the riverbed. We were there the next day and about all that was left was the carcass. When we first arrived, a sow bear and her 2 cubs were feeding on it. In a short while, a female wolf approached from the far shore, and the bears took off. The wolf ate for a while but she saw a male bear approach and pulled a leg off and took it back to the far shore. The male bear claimed the carcass and stayed there for quite a while, gathering antlers and bones and eating on them; eventually he laid down atop the carcass.

The female wolf returned; it was exciting to see the interaction between the bear and the wolf; the wolf finally left. We had never seen that type of animal interaction in the wild. Thanks again for your interesting pictures and accounting.
