Denali National Park photos (Mt. McKinley)

On July 13, 2003, I took a flight over Denali National Park in Alaska, and took the photos shown here. Click on any thumnail image for a larger version. In the airplane with me were my daughter Melinda, and my friends Art and Roz Rosenfeld. As you can see, we landed on the Ruth Glacier. If you would like the full images (5 megapixels each, about 1.5 Mbyte), then email me at muller@physics.Berkeley.edu.
