Denali Changes

Denali National Park - home of Mount McKinley (6194m), the highest point of North America, Grizzly bears and unique ecosystem with three kinds of natural environment. Taiga, tundra and the alpine sector. During the short summer season you can experience all four seasons in couple of weeks. Following pictures illustrate the change of land in the area of Polychrome Pass. First picture was made on 6th August 2009. The second one month later on 15th September.

--------6.8.2009-------
-------15.9.2009-------

Next two pictures from the same spot are made probably during the most beautiful time in Denali - the beginning of September. Colours are brightly purple, red, yellow. However, these conditions are very unstable and with the first freezing and snowfall you can enjoy this incredible art of nature just few days in year. If you are late, you see the country from Picture 2 reminding more dry subtropical areas than rainy Alaska.

Pictures from 4th September were made by Lukas R. in year 2008. The last picture from his collection is from lower parts of Denali NP and doesn t need any comments.

ART OF NATURE by Lukas R.


It would be great to share pictures also from spring and cold winter. We don t have any, so we have to go there again and take it with our own hands. Looking forward "Polychrome". Pictures in higher resolution available on http://picasaweb.google.com/matyas.andrej/DenaliChanges#
