My Best Grizzly Pose
After over 50 trips to Alaska from the lower 48 states, I have seen the bears doing almost anything and anyplace. This grizzly bear was taking it easy when we traveled through Polychrome in Denali National Park. As we approached his resting spot, he tilted his head our way and struck this pose. Earlier photographers said he was rolling down the side of the hill. Guess, he is doing his best to entertain the tourists. Just really glad he did not walk away before I got a few shots. Hope you enjoy.

Shuttlebus (Btf. Engelsburg - Parkplatz Thyssen)
This was one of my goals on this trip - Sunset from Hopi Point. All in all I am happy with the results. I learned a lot and got this shot. Sunsets happen so fast.
I took a little winter trip to the South Rim. Hardly any crowds at this time of year. Temperatures in the upper 20's during the day, mid teens at night with windchills into the single digits. I am well prepared for these temperatures and was comfortable most of the time. I stayed at the El Tovar Lodge.

This viewpoint offers panoramic and breathtaking views of the canyon along the scenic Hermit Road. An ideal location for sunrise or sunset, Hopi Point also offers five views of the Colorado River. Vault toilets available.

Stop number four along the west rim shuttlebus (the red route) is Hopi Point, the northernmost spot on this part of the south rim, and the first point where much more of the western Grand Canyon comes into full perspective - another 20 miles, since the Colorado begins a big bend northwards, allowing views all the way to Havasupai Point and the Great Scenic Divide. Hopi Point has a fenced viewing area next to the road, and a vista over the canyon centered on Dana Butte, a flat mesa 2,000 feet below the overlook. Salt Creek runs to one side, meeting the Colorado at a series of rapids, while Monument Creek is on the other side, joining the river at another set (Granite Rapids).
Opposite Hopi Point on the North Rim are a group of prominent mesas either side of Trinity Creek, named after figures from ancient Egypt - largest are Isis Temple, Horus Temple and Osiris Temple. Like many other Grand Canyon features their names were assigned by writer and geologist Clarence Dutton in the 1880s.
Because of the wide-ranging, unobstructed views, Hopi is the most popular place on the west rim for watching the sun set.

The railway connects Luleå with Gällivare, Kiruna and Narvik. Although built to serve the mine, Swedish Rail runs daily passenger traffic on the line: a night train from Narvik to Stockholm, a day train from Narvik to Luleå (connecting with a second night train to Stockholm and Gothenburg), and trains to Luleå and Narvik that start and finish in Kiruna. The latter is known as Karven and popular for day trips to the mountains near Abisko, Björkliden and Riksgränsen, particularly in winter. Additional long-distance trains are run by Transdev in summer. The railway station has since 2013 moved location 2 km away from the city centre so walking is possible but not recommended. There is a free shuttlebus for every departure and arrival which starts from Kiruna bustation in the city centre.

It is raining Saturday morning when we take the shuttle bus to the JFK airport. We fly with JetBlue to Jacksonville / Florida and take a rental car there. Then it goes from the Atlantic along the Gulf of Mexico to the Pacific. We visited numerous national parks, if they were open because of the shutdown.

How glorious a greeting the sun gives the Canyon! (paraphrasing John Muir)
